There is a thing in dance music where some DJ or producer will find an interesting new sound or style, and then other DJs and producers will produce sound-alike knock offs, and that will be interesting for _a while_, but eventually people will get bored of it and nobody will buy that kind of music again.

An AI might sort of make producing knock-offs of popular styles easier, but it'll also probably hasten the decline in popularity of those styles as well. One popular song is great, 3 or 4 copies of that style might still be good, but 10,000 indistinguishable copies of it -- meh.

I think what you might actually see is something like this:

A dj comes up with a new sound, and people might like ask an ai to produce a whole mix of songs similar to that record, just for them, that nobody else will ever listen to. Or even better -- a DJ might come up with a new sound and _sell an AI themselves_ that can produce songs like that on demand.
