Suno, an AI start-up, has released an iOS app that allows users to create songs by inputting a short text. The company has faced legal challenges from record companies, as they argue that the app infringes on copyrighted songs. Nevertheless, the app remains available for free download. The author experimented with the app and felt both excited and unnerved by the experience.

Despite the fun of creating music on a whim, the author started to question the value and authenticity of AI-generated songs. They shared AI songs with friends and family, but began to worry about devaluing music and potentially infringing on artists' work. The author also highlights concerns about record labels using AI to create synthetic artists and streaming services exploiting revenue from synthetic music. The future of AI-generated music and its impact on the music industry is uncertain, but it is clear that AI music is becoming more prevalent.
