If AI is able to write songs that are listened to so much, maybe pop music has just become too generic and derivative?

Per the video it seems the songs are not being listened to so much, but rather artificially boosted by fake traffic and/or (less likely imo) Spotify itself.

Spotify is definitely pushing these "fake artists". They do the same thing for real artists that they propagandized as "up and coming basement artists", while they were instead carefully engineered to be successful on their platforms.
