So I'm trying to understand. Is this spam for the Lamucal service? I saw this same code posted on Reddit the other day under a different name. Here are a few repos with the exact same code under different names:
- https://github.com/DoMusic/Hybrid-Net
- https://github.com/TuneMusic/NiceMusic
- https://github.com/JoinMusic/fish
- https://github.com/Famuse/CombineNet
- https://github.com/AIAudioLab/AITabs
- https://github.com/AIMusicLab/MicroMuisc
I'm pretty sure there are more, but I'll stop there. Especially suspicious considering all the usernames.
Here's a post from yesterday on Reddit:
- https://www.reddit.com/r/coolaitools/comments/1ervthn/found_...
I'm guessing the general process here is:
- Push novelty (but unusable to most people) code to new Github repo
- Submit that code to Reddit/Hacker News
- People see it and are impressed by
Read the rest
the novelty code,
despite not running it due to missing the models themselves, etc. They upvote and subscribe ($$$) to actually try it.
- Repeat
I understand the desire to promote one's new service, and the product seems like it could be interesting, but this is not the way to get the word out. Reputation matters.
Edit:
Check out the user deeplover's post/comment history. One submission with the MicroMusic (see above) repo, and one comment, see below.
Also, the post by user liwei0517 is almost exactly like BigOrange688 on Reddit. See: https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/1es0deh/co...
