By Facebook,88yabo88 ,Social Media,Twitter No Comments

The one thing that never fails to piss off creators and artists are social media algorithms!

Not too long ago, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) were all the rage in 2021. But more recently, AI has been the buzzword coming into 2023. Aspects of AI, like the infamous social media algorithms, have been the musician’s archenemy over the past several years with sharp declines in organic reach, but will AI become the final boss or the hero to save the day?
