As a former musician, yes, we do. Any above average musician can play "Riders on the Storm" in the style of Johnny Cash, or Green Day, or Nirvana, etc. Successful above average musicians usually have almost encyclopedic knowledge of artists and albums at least in their favorite genre. This is how all art is made. Some artists will be more honest about this than others.
Again, you are comparing machines with humans. We're built for depth, not scale. Machines are built for scale, not depth.
I also play the guitar, and it took me 10 years to learn 30 or 40 songs. So I don't see how anyone can learn 7 million songs in a couple of minutes.
I have learned 100s of songs in a summer for various fill in gigs. Most music is extremely similar. You don't need to learn every song in existence to write suno pop.
Impressive. I rehearsed for a month before a gig where I played 12 songs. So, unfortunately, I can't relate.
And those bands can successfully sue you for that. Especially if you sell it for money. Double especially if your sales of their songs displace them in the market.
