All these “look at the thing the ai wrote” articles are utter garbage, and only appeal to people who do not understand how generative ai works.
There is no way to know if you actually got the ai to break its restrictions and output something “behind the scenes” or it’s just generating the reply that is most likely what you are after with your prompt.
Especially when more and more articles like this comes out gets fed back into the nonsense machines and teaches then what kind of replies is most commonly reported to be acosiated with such prompts…
In this case it’s even more obvious that a lot of the basis of its statements are based on various articles and discussions about it’s statements. (That where also most likely based on news articles about various enteties labeling Musk as a spreader of misinformation…)
Tangentially to other comments. Though not as prevalent in the 90s as more conventional music software was getting more common also in game music. Tracker music lends it self pretty nicely to the sample chopping origins of jungle/drum and bass.
(I know that for instance Unreal Tournament 99 used tracker music still.)
I was recently part of a jungle compilation for the M8 portable tracker, and got addicted to how fun and easy it is to chop and manipulate drum breaks in the tracker.
So in addition to a feature of the time and culture of the 90s I think lots of music composers were still either using trackers or got started using trackers. So manipulating sampled drum grooves was in their toolsets. (As it frees up channels and is easy to do in a tracker)
