HAL 9000 reduced to picking the top of the pops

by

Apparently the record industry is using artificial intelligence to help pick what songs will be hits. This is one of those things we always suspected, but now we’ve got proof. Not that I really care; I haven’t listened to top 40 radio in years. The closest I get to hearing the new mainstream stuff is a curious click on the iTunes music store. And that’s why ITMS doesn’t have more of my money. 🙂
