The non creatives always crave ways that can diminish those that are.
I am musical. 6 yrs at the conservatory. Blah blah right? Lots of theory, moderate practical. I cannot draw/paint for shit. I absolutely adore those that can (but also say they are arses) and marvel at their ability to turn a 2d drawing into a sphere (for example) that pops out of the page. Street chalk artists making steps and chasms? Fuck yeah.
Ya A.I faff could not draw that shit without first being "trained" on it. This is well documanted.
It cannot create music, even though essentially music is mathematical in nature (at a fundamental level).
It needs to parse millions of tunes to determine the statistically most probable combo of notes/chords that will make a song or a riff.
Im sure many peeps will link "A.I band RoboTronix" made a hit song. Im sure it did. What we didnt hear is the complete shit it passed off as hit material before it. A human (with musical chops) most assuredly vetted those songs before proclaiming "we no longer need humans to make our music" the game is over.
It is true humans too make many attempts before a hit is made. Although some bastards make hit after hit. I'm thinkin' Queen, Neil Diamond, Beethoven, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, The Boss, need I continue? Im certain they've came up with non bangers, but ya sort of get a feel for it id say. In a way that A.I just cant. It just mathmatically spews cominations of frequencies until a human hears a banger.
Sorry but its true.
