And..... the word is out, quietly, of course, that some of the top artists in all genres are using it to assist with writing and composing. Of course, no one is going to admit publicly to that. Which now, of course, makes it even harder for unknown writers to even get a foot in the door.

Oh yeah, the shift is already happening in the demo studio business and with those companies that write custom songs for individuals. I was a singer/songwriter for one of those companies for a while, and got a number of nice jobs. AI was just getting started but the requests and jobs dropped off to nothing within a few months as AI started to garner attention and folks could do their own custom song by typing in the key points they wanted covered.... and for free or almost free, vs what the the custom song service was charging
.
Song services, demo studios, session players, and more are finding it harder to get work and make a living from music that was once lucrative.

Vinyl and tape got replaced by CD's. CD's got replaced by digital downloads which were quickly replaced by streaming.

As Dylan said.... the times they are a changing.
