I started my Pandora account when I was probably 14 or 15, that was about 20 years ago for me. I've loved it, I've never used anything else, and I have been a champion of this platform for a long time. I started noticing the ai tracks popping up in my stations recently and it's been a huge disappointment. There is nothing worse than being in the middle of a groove with some of your favorite artists and tracks and suddenly (and instantly in my case) hearing an ai generated voice with some bland and uninspired mechanical lyrics interrupt. It's honestly insulting to the artists to even put a track like that in the same playlists as someone like Sade, Erykha Badu, or whoever (I listen to everything, so I'm here for you too metal and electronic listeners). I really hope you have plans to either add filtering options, remove these artists completely, or give users the ability to flag and request removal for these tracks. This is the first time since I've started my account that I've considered closing the doors on Pandora. I'm about to start ripping cassette tapes at this point...
