I always considered this forum a "finished song" place , and leave critique of any kind to minimum. Perhaps it will turn that way with more participants. Me, I still post over in Lyric Forum. Fair game to expect harsher critiques there. I think Elvis always starts his projects there.

But these are two volatile groups. Ai is pissing lots of people off. Its a wonder we all get along so well here.

Agreed mostly.
Except that when Rob sent me AI of my own song at light speed, and I liked it miles better than my own version, I can't say that I hate AI. I dont. I plan to use it more, but as an aid to other performed songs mostly and as an end in itself. For me, it really boils down to live-voice versus modeled-machine-voice.

I can't help but feeling that those two origins should be split out on a creative site.
