The movie Electric Dreams is now the most prescient '80s movie about gen AI so far; An architect builds an approximation engine on his home PC which then ingests the whole internet/TV and learns to compose music for the cute girl next door who plays the cello. Song mis-attribution is the central theme. The hit song from the movie Together In Electric Dreams is actually from the perspective of the gen AI choosing to self-destruct as a final show of his love. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDV-_q-iaK8I bring it up only to provide a bit of balance to the soulless slop debate, proving creators can have diverging opinions on what is good in music creation and life—they don't all feel threatened by poor substitutes no one can possibly enjoy.
