And then you close by saying you sincerely wish you had Suno back in the day when you were trying to get a cut while you were in Nashville.

I'm puzzled. Are you still adamant about not using it or are you considering going to the dark side
I believe floyd jane was focusing on Suno for creating pro-level demos, which is what most of the people in the article are doing. Songs they had written themselves, with lyrics the had written themselves, and then quickly create pro-level demos of.

Speaking for myself, I'm on this forum to not only share music, but see what people can do with BiaB. It's fine if people want to use other tools, but I don't think this is the forum to do that in. YMMV.

That's not what I got from the article that AI was being used solely for production by the Nashville songwriters. A reading of the article again before I replied here certainly seems to imply that AI is being used by the writers in Nashville for everything. Sure, they mentioned that one writer wrote the lyrics and then Suno created the finished version. Did it do the melody? The article doesn't actually say.
But it did mention that AI is assisting with lyrics, music and production.... The last 20% is quoted in the story. But it's never defined. Is the 20% finishing the lyrics that has someone stuck? Is it tweaking the melody or structure? Or is it the production part?

The story does seem to imply that AI is being used to help with everything.
