Adin is one of the biggest names in the streaming world, especially following his big-money signing to Kick \u2014 a Twitch rival backed by crypto gambling casino Stake, after he was banned on the Amazon-owned streaming platform. Since then, and even prior to that, Adin hasn\u2019t been shy about spending his hard-earned money, whether that\u2019s giving it away to fans, sharing with friends and fellow creators, or even being outbid by Lionel Messi on a $10m Miami mansion. One major purchase of his turned out to be a dud however, as he spent six figures on what he believed to be an unreleased track by Kanye West and Travis Scott \u2014 but it turned out the track was made entirely with AI (artificial intelligence), meaning it\u2019s not a Kanye x Travis song at all. Adin Ross buys fake Kanye &#038; Travis Scott collab A clearly annoyed Ross spoke about the issue on stream, saying: \u201cI paid $200,000 for an unreleased song\u2026 it was AI. I got scammed for $200,000 by an AI song.\u201d He then started playing the song during his stream, saying \u201clisten to how AI it is,\u201d before having a brief moment where he thought that it may actually have been real. Obviously this is a lot of money to throw down the drain like this, and may be the most expensive AI song ever generated. That said, the $200k is still some way off what was paid for the Wu Tang Clan\u2019s single-copy album Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, which was bought for $4m in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adin Ross paid $200k for \u201cunreleased\u201d Kanye &#038; Travis Scott song that\u2019s actually AI Kick: adinrossKick streamer Adin Ross has revealed that he paid $200,000 for an \u2018unreleased\u2019 collaborative song between Kanye West and Travis Scott \u2014 and it turned out to just be an AI-generated track.
