As with text, the current form of AI (generative AI) will be very good at creating music that sounds good, not good music.

I agree, but one lesson I've learned from fifty years of music obsession is that people mostly don't like good music.
Ok fair, but most of the work of music creation is in making it sound good. I suspect the right combination of generative AI plus a little human guidance at the conceptual level should result in music that is good, with minimal effort. And to think I wasted all those years improving my piano ;-)
