Resolves YES if my personal favorite album of 2025 uses significant elements of synthetic audio. This can mean that lyrics, stems, or additional production of the album were done by humans as long as the main musical components of most of the runtime of the album use the output of a DL synthetic audio model. Fully synthetic albums would of course also count.

This resolves NO. When I was operationalizing this one, I for some reason decided against making one where I compare my Spotify Discover Weekly against featured Suno tracks at the end of the year. But having just listened through both, I find that I prefer the median song in Suno's "Explore v5" Page (https://suno.com/explore-v5) for the genres I like over the median Discover Weekly track.
In fact, I estimate that the median featured Suno v5 song snippet (ignoring quality of lyrics) is about as pleasant as a 75th percentile Discover Weekly track for me, about 20th percentile among tracks on my saved playlists, and 1st percentile among my top 150-ish songs of all time. I estimate that 95th percentile Suno v5 songs would be 90th percentile Discover Weekly tracks, 60th percentile saved playlist tracks, and in the 5th percentile among my all-time-favorites.
2026 will probably be interesting in this regard.
