David Snyder... Good post and pertinent information for anyone keeping up with the AI debate and progress towards becoming legitimate and mainstream. That describes the current situation perfectly.

As with any new technology, it tends to be held at bay until it gets adopted by the majority. People used to use wax cylinders before tape and once tape was seen to be the better way, wax cylinders disappeared. And then came digital which was called "sterile and lifeless" by the tape aficionados. Sound familiar?

At some point, I don't know when, there will be a bonafide hit song that is revealed to either be partially or fully written, music and lyrics, by AI and a human. There will likely be some sort of legal action and a resultant lawsuit and a judgement handed down and legal precedent set that will open the way for AI to become more the norm than an abberation. It'll happen one lawsuit at a time

It's simply a matter of time.
