I'm going to harp on this again but, yes, yes AI-generated content is derivative. Music is appealing *because* it is an innately human, creative act. It could be something as ugly as death metal, as soothing as ambient music or as joyful as pop can tend to be.<!-- excerpt -->
An AI application will mimic these characteristics but will fail to capture what it sets out to devalue.

I don't want AI created art, there is no value there. Generative AI will increase the volume of available content and data, but we already have a glut of that. The original creators of art and music are already struggling to make a living.
