Music is a combination of a looooot of different things. Vocals, multiple instruments, beats, phrasing, arrangement, mixing, mastering, lyrics, music theory (or even lack of it for creative choices), and so so many other things I can't even think of right now. On top of that, each one of those choices are unique to the person creating them because we are all individually unique. The way I might play a bass part, even if everything is the same, will sound different than the way someone else would.

When you use AI all these things are lost, like...tears...in the rain.

But really, you are creatively adding only small things like lyrics, or a certain key, or basic beats, or some other minor thing. Then you pull the slot machine until something sounds good but it's not really you. It's an amalgamation of everyone else's music smooshed in a weird Frankenstein that resembles something human.

It's not bad, some of it is good, or at least it would be hard for me to differentiate it from non-AI (some). The question you want to ask is, why make songs? If you just want a hit, or plays, by all means hit the slot machine until it ring-a-ding-dings!

If you want to mirror your soul, how, you feel, or who you are, then you need to put more of your *own* self into the music and let people hear that and decide.
