Picture this: you're a broke musician who spent three years writing, recording, and producing an album. You finally release it, and within a week some AI model trained on your work pumps out 50 new "songs" that sound just like your style. They flood Spotify, drowning out your actual art. How is that fair?
Look, I get the appeal—AI music is cheap and endless. But streaming platforms are already terrible for paying artists. Allowing AI-generated songs means competing with content that costs nothing to make, with zero human creativity behind it. It's not about innovation; it's about corporations replacing artists with algorithms.
We should protect the space for human expression. Let AI be a tool, not a replacement. If we let this floodgate open, we're basically telling every songwriter their work can be scraped and replicated without consent or compensation. That's not progress—that's theft.
