AI Music Experimentation

I've played around with AI music recently, and after trying it out, I can confirm it's subpar, but not for the reasons you'd expect.

There's a band I really like called Talk Talk, and their last two albums, Spirit of Eden and Laughing Stock, are fantastic - full of emotion and yearning, amongst many layered sounds, creating music that's heavenlike and unreal. This is a brief description, but hopefully illustrates that I really love this music. It's human because of how beautiful it is, and vice versa.

AI on the other hand cannot write music like that - it goes for the safe option through prompts, taking the generic base sound of a genre instead of experimenting with it. It leaves you with a bland mess.
