My dad just used some form of AI to hallucinate a “song” for Mom and their anniversary. He got real mad when I said I didn’t want to hear it. Both Mom and I have degrees in music and play an instrument or two. He still couldn’t figure out why it mattered.
How is your dad married to your mother for that long without picking up that self expression comes from a human being? It’s like a fundamental aspect of art.
If you create a song, or any piece of art, that’s self expression. Especially if it’s to commemorate something/someone important to you. You’re literally expressing how you feel about the subject.
If you got a machine to approximate something, that shows you recognised that the effort would be meaningful, and didn’t do it. Poorly drawn crayon art would be more meaningful.

From the artist’s POV, I understand. But that’s just not how the average listener perceives it.
Nobody says that.
Nobody bothers to
