Interesting Joanne, I just did a Google search and this site came up, https://theselyricsdonotexist.com/Putting guitar in Topic gave me this song, probably can give a few ideas for a song, but not useable as a whole song. Verse 1 I just sit here in this bar alone I with my guitar And a barrel of moonshine And the notes in your guitar Pre-Chorus I have not yet heard a soul I trust But I need a place I can safely set my guitar Chorus To the island, island See my car I wrecked, my guitar in the back seat You wanna go, you wanna go Nice and slow like hot tracks of the guitar Verse 2 Pick up your guitar baby Pick up that stick now Would you just give it a try We used to roll all day Pre-Chorus I got my guitar and a need to sing I feel free again and all the same Chorus To the island, island See my car I wrecked, my guitar in the back seat You wanna go, you wanna go Nice and slow like hot tracks of the guitar Bridge You have never proved me wrong Take your guitar and my heart Chorus To the island, island See my car I wrecked, my guitar in the back seat You wanna go, you wanna go Nice and slow like hot tracks of the guitar

Agreed. The lyrics do need tweaking…
But it certainly gets the creative juices flowing… it is just a tool (like Band-in-a-box).
In my app, I used “guitar” as a prompt for a happy song in the style of Joan Baez.
Title: Strumming My Guitar
Verse 1:
Strumming my guitar, playing a tune
Feeling so happy, under the moon
The stars are shining, the night is still
I'm playing my guitar, with all my will
Chorus:
Playing my guitar, singing my song
Feeling so happy, all night long
Verse 2:
Playing my guitar, strumming away
The music is sweet, it's here to stay
The birds are singing, the night is young
I'm playing my guitar, and having fun
Chorus:
Playing my guitar, singing my song
Feeling so happy, all night long
Bridge:
The night is alive, with music and joy
Playing my guitar, I'm filled with delight
Chorus:
Playing my guitar, singing my song
Feeling so happy, all night long

Joanne that is really impressive, did it really generate that without much tweaking on your part?
Now those lyrics do make sense compared to what I got on that site.
Update.
Just found the site, which took a while, so in that regard your app would be a lot more convenient
Asked it to write a song and I got this, which is perfectly usable. Very impressed with what it can do. Having tried a few more examples its so much fun to use (I think should probably be in Biab 2024)
A brand new day(my title)
Verse 1:
In the morning light
I wake up to a brand new day
The world is alive
And it's waiting for me to come out and play
Chorus:
So I sing this song
With all the love that's in my heart
I'll keep on singing
Till the whole world plays its part
Verse 2:
The sun is shining
And the sky is painted blue
The birds are flying
And they're singing their songs too
Chorus:
So I sing this song
With all the love that's in my heart
I'll keep on singing
Till the whole world plays its part
Bridge:
We can make a difference
If we only try
Together we can change the world
And make it a better place to live
Chorus:
So I sing this song
With all the love that's in my heart
I'll keep on singing
Till the whole world plays its part
Outro:
So let's join hands
And sing this song together
We'll make a difference
And the world will be a better place forever.
(write a country song about drinking)
Verse 1:
Well I woke up this morning with a heavy heart,
Thinking 'bout the troubles that tore me apart,
I grabbed my keys, headed to the bar,
Where I know my buddies won't be too far.
Chorus:
So I'll drink 'til I forget my worries,
Let the whiskey flow and drown my sorrows,
Maybe tomorrow I'll feel different,
But tonight, drinking is my only remedy.
Verse 2:
I know I shouldn't drink to numb the pain,
But it's hard to resist the pull of a cold one,
So I'll sit here all night, knocking them back,
Maybe the answers will come to me in a black-out.
Chorus:
So I'll drink 'til I forget my worries,
Let the whiskey flow and drown my sorrows,
Maybe tomorrow I'll feel different,
But tonight, drinking is my only remedy.
Bridge:
I know it's not the healthiest thing to do,
But sometimes it's the only thing that'll get me through,
So I'll raise a glass to all the broken hearts,
And pray that tomorrow we can make a brand new start.
Chorus:
So I'll drink 'til I forget my worries,
Let the whiskey flow and drown my sorrows,
Maybe tomorrow I'll feel different,
But tonight, drinking is my only remedy.
Outro:
Well, the night is done, and it's time to go,
But I'll be back tomorrow, that much I know,
Maybe I'll find a way to live without this crutch,
But for now, I'll keep drinking and hoping for a lucky touch

Clever technology but I really don't see a need for it personally as I write my own & enjoy that process as well as hamfistedly creating chord progressions and stabs of melody.
If the aim is to create & express rather than "create content" or experiment with potential then it's more a diversion that path.
Of course, if the aim is to enjoy then it probably serves the purpose.

Chat GPT is a godsend to be honest. It helps me in many ways Me too! I am using it in so many ways. Yesterday, for my “real job” I asked it what the difference is between SOAP and REST api. Then I gave it some SOAP xml and asked it to convert to REST xml….fantastic results! By the way, on my YT video I had a comment to include the ability to take existing lyrics and check them, line by line, for consistency in meter. Is this something that people would see as useful?

Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming. And we’ve added lots of new modern pop styles (16) — the kinds of sounds you’re hearing on the radio today, featuring exciting new drums, synths, and cutting-edge RealTracks arrangements.

There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
