Had this song in my head, wrote some lyrics, hummed it into Suno, generated the song. I love listening to it. What a world.
I make little tools like that all the time. My GitHub is filled with these little things I write or gen once never to be used again. Some of them I use daily (GitHub.com/dexterlagan). Since LLMs became decent I make even more of these. The more we move forward, the more people make things for their own use. I think it's cool. I see a lot of naysayers, but man, I have been waiting for this kind of tech since I was 10. Let's enjoy it I say.
I gave suno a shot and couldn't get anything good out of it. Maybe a skill issue. Can you share the song it generated?

I understand your frustration, but I don't agree with the sentiment that AI-training should not be allowed without compensation.
If I learn to draw, make music, build stuff, etc. I look at what others have done before me. I don't pay anyone either. Why should the AI?
I think devil's advocate would say because using the AI is more like Ctrl+C Ctrl+V whereas if you learn it yourself it's original. Not saying I agree, but.
Because you as an individual aren't a multi billion dollar company doing the same in all fields at scale. They are walling profiting from any intellectual work.
First, starting off with “as a <insert self aggrandising title>…” already makes you ineligible to emit an opinion on any given subject.
Second, rude.
Third, you might want to check with a professional, but it seems to me you are projecting your own (fairly obvious, and loud) insecurities onto others; I’m sorry that you feel you’re not good enough at music.
