I can't speak for you, but I find it hard to believe meaningful compositions would be meaningful without the words naturally flowing out of the emotions that birthed them. You'll find no such meaning behind the statistically average gunk spit out by generative models.

This is nice, in sentiment, but a lot harder to reconcile when you realize that many if not most of the musicians we treasure have written their music in detached emotional states when they wrote their music, either high on LSD, amphetamines, heroin, or cocaine.

I've personally made generative models produce poetry that brought tears to my eyes. Granted, they always require as a template other poetry that I already find meaningful, but this did not diminish the results in any respect, in my eyes.

On the other hand, asking GPT to write poetry from scratch? Just awful.
