Interesting stuff about the music business, Mr. Matt. But based on what I've read I think you should worry a bit less. Check out the book Storythinking by Angus Fletcher. It teaches a whole new theory of creativity, and that AI will never create because of the basic way it works. A hardware issue, Fletcher says. Not software. Also, I think the book would be killer for your class.

Thanks for the recommendation -- and for reading! I'll check it out. The downside is, of course, that AI is "creating" now and, whereas I believe it will never sound human, there are those out there who won't be able to hear the difference. At that point, where is the songwriter composer? But I am looking forwad to reading Fletcher. Hope all is well!
