I think AI can make contrived records that sound like every other record. I don't think it can make true timeless and classic music.

On a completely different note, I think the premise of this idea sounds absolutely dystopian.

I think this is true today, but timeless and classic music comes from creativity. And creativity is a trial and error process of building on prior approaches and techniques. Randomly testing new approaches and techniques by blending and extending past approaches and techniques seems like something generative AI (with human prompting and targeted supplementation) would be particularly good at.

It's not like the AI made this on its own, it was iterative work with a human

> As I was making the song, I felt like I (a guy with no musical ability) was working with one of the most talented (and patient) bands to bring my song to life through brute force trial and error.

Max Martin comes to mind as an interesting comparison
