• Michael Shelley’s show: Saturdays 11am to 1pm Eastern, here on WFMU. (Michael’s April 20, 2024 show featured a bunch of AI-generated jingles.)

• Udio, the AI music generator that Michael used to create his jingles

• Authoritarian and Democratic Technics, by Lewis Mumford (1964): “The bargain we are being asked to ratify takes the form of a magnificent bribe.” (You can also listen to this recording of Mumford reading his essay.)

• RadioHDFM, an AI-generated radio station streaming on (Amazon-owned) Twitch. Thanks to listener Hugo for the pointer.

From the Dutch-language Wikipedia entry: “Radio HDFM is een online ‘radiozender’ opgezet door Jeffrey Wirtz, beter bekend onder het pseudoniem Egbert.[1] Radio HDFM is het eerste radiostation ter wereld dat volledig draait op kunstmatige intelligentie en bevatte op moment van lancering meer dan 11 uur aan muziek.”

In English: “Radio HDFM is an online ‘radio station’ founded by Jeffrey Wirtz, better known by the pseudonym Egbert. Radio HDFM is the world’s first radio station to run entirely on artificial intelligence and contained more than 11 hours of music at the time of launch.”

The station’s tag line is “Real sound. Fake music.”
