"your friend just doesn't want to search for new music, and that is ok, it's ok to be lazy"
Actually it seems to me like what the friend was doing required a lot more effort than "searching for new music". This isn't the 80s where you have to get in with the "in crowd" to listen to bootlegs or limited prints. You're talking about going through search results at a computer, right? She's actually involving herself in the music creation process, in some small way.
Yes, and random song of 80s will be as shitty as random song of 2010s and 2020s.
Prompting a machine to generate random slop that sounds like other music isn't really involving yourself in the creation process. This person applied no taste or knowledge to the creation process, didn't learn anything. Just asked for a pattern matcher to give her something like what she already had.
Nobody generating anything on Suno is showing any kind of creativity. It's somehow worse then regular plagiarism.
