real interest.

Sigh.

There's no admission that this was done by AI, which is sleazy of the person who uploaded it, but this and a few other new videos from this Argentinian account are completely different from what they posted earlier.

So this is NOT real music from real artists doing a parody of Led Zeppelin. It's novelty AI slop.

From the comments on the AI fake Kiss album:

a.i. is taking over the internet!


And is so boooooooooring. Always the same.


Too bad it is just AI generated music so not much creativity here. Could have been a good idea


Stop this AI shit


God damn AI destroying all that's good with music. F*** it.

less than a month. Apparently AI "cover art." No mention of real musicians. No denial that this was done with AI, despite all the comments identifying it as AI.

Don't expect AI users happy to use AI - to pretend they have talents they don't have - to fess up to using AI, if they think anyone will be fooled.

The Yardbirds disbanded in 1968 leaving their 4th member, Jimmy Page, with the band's name and concert obligations in Scandinavia. Page knew John Paul Jones and asked him to be bassist. Page first offered a different singer the gig, but he declined, recommending Robert Plant, who brought a fellow band member of his, John Bonham, for drums. The group completed the Scandinavian concert obligations as The New Yardbirds.

It was after that tour was completed, they went in the studio and recorded Let Zeppelin's first album in 1969.

And especially consider that with all the commsnts from people saying those videos are AI, there was no denial.

As there would have been if there was any real musical talent behind this.

talented musicians doing parodies.

Again, don't expect everyone who'd use AI, with all the the ethical problems associated with it, to admit they use it. Especially if they think they'd get less praise and fewer clicks if they admit to it.

I skimmed more of the comments, saw more people pointing out it was AI, no admission of that by the jerk who uploaded this and the other albums of fake music.

I listened to another track of the album, and listening to it made me furious.

The jerk who did this doesn't really care about music or artists, or he wouldn't be using a music generator that works only because the AI company stole every bit of music it could.

The jerk just decided to rip off Led Zeppelin's name and lyrics to get himself a lot of clicks and possibly make some money.

I think he should be sued and banned from YouTube.

And the AI companies responsible for the initial theft should be sued out of existence.
