1- The talking point expressing an anti-consumerist sentiment for the Christmas holidays is cliched and boring.

2- This is actually offensive not because of the nature of the lyrics, but for its association with Eminem.

I'm not an Eminem stan myself, but it can do him like this. The guy is way way out of its league

This is an amateur-level lyricism for rap songs and even me not remotely an amateur lyricist, I can do better than this garbage:

"We overspend and consume, just to show [that] we care. But is all that material stuff [I assume], really worth the wear and tear?"

3- Children-book writing level.

I mean it's very impressive given it's produced by a bot, but not a cause of immediate concern for well-established figures in the fiction writing world especially with this bland and sterile voice/tone in its storytelling.




OK, re-reading your comment: Yes, I agree of course it is not super-human. People are impressed because it's able to express itself like a low-to-mediocre-skilled human, which still seems like a pretty high bar.


I agree. I see a lot of ratcheting expectations in this thread, in response to some truly amazing and frankly frightening capabilities. Those rap lyrics IMO are at least as good as many, many lyrics in actual successful songs by real humans. Most song lyrics aren't very clever.
