Why is it so hard to let go? Why do we hold on to something that has died a long time ago? This is something that holds us back more than one can imagine. It hinders us the opportunity to move on and due to that, we miss valuable time and life that is waiting for us. I have spent most of my time trying to fix everything, I was so afraid that if I didn't let go of certain people and habits that I would be left alone but that is the farthest from the truth. The crazy thing is that we, as human beings, have the incredible power to be resilient and that till prove to come in handy later on. The biggest problem that I believe people have letting go is relationships. Its because relationships are such a huge investment and that's why some people have commitment issues and try so hard to salvage them when it seems to go wrong. As a sensitive person myself, I would easily do anything for anyone I cared about and it seemed betraying to me that they would not do the same. But that's reality. The truth is that not everyone is going to have your best interest at heart: not everyone is willing to make time for you and not everyone will love but that's okay. People do that but whether that affects you is a choice. I let people use me and walk all over me just to say that its my fault. I have apologized a billion times for other's insecurities and I am scarred from head to toe but this is it. No more. I am letting go, I am letting go of my 'friends' who made me cry until 3 am, I am letting go of the past that stopped me from embracing my future and most of all I let go of my fear. I am scared of being alone but who said that was a bad thing. Being alone allowed me to get to know myself and understand what was going to happen from then on. Life didn't scare me anymore and I left unwanted baggage on the side of the road and haven't looked back. I challenge you to go find those old photos that have bad memories and burn them because the only one holding you back is YOU.

The Illusion of Creativity
AI-generated music is often marketed as “artistic” or “educational.” But what does it really teach?
- That style can be replicated without understanding.
- That emotion can be simulated without feeling.
- That effort can be bypassed with a prompt.
For young creators, this sets a dangerous precedent. Why learn to play guitar when an algorithm can do it faster? Why study harmony when AI can generate chord progressions in seconds? The risk isn’t just laziness — it’s the loss of depth, discipline, and the tactile joy of creation.
I have listened to several AI-generated music covers. My initial reaction was one of considerable impressiveness, particularly regarding the reimagining of classic pop hits in diverse genres with novel arrangements. Here is one good example a-ha — Take On Me
However, after engaging with several such Ai generated song covers, a sense of emotional detachment emerged, attributable to the perceived absence of human artistry and genuine sentiment, resulting in a technically flawless yet ultimately soulless auditory experience.
Copyright in Crisis
What does the copyright law say about AI generated music, especially in field of music covers. Who is liable for copyright in this case, AI developers, people who used AI to generate music or people who published it on music platforms?
Recent lawsuits show that the music industry is pushing back hard:
- Universal, Sony, and Warner sued AI music platforms Suno and Udio in 2024 for allegedly training their models on copyrighted songs without permission Ars Technica The Lyon Firm.
- They’re seeking up to $150,000 per infringed song, arguing that the AI outputs resemble famous tracks and voices (e.g., Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson).
- These lawsuits target the developers of the AI tools — but they raise broader questions:The legal gray area is training data. Courts haven’t yet ruled definitively on whether using copyrighted songs to train AI counts as infringement or fair use Sites at USC.
But who’s liable?
Role | Legal Risk | Why |
AI Developers | ✅ High | For training on copyrighted material without licenses. |
Users | ⚠️ Moderate | If they intentionally recreate protected works. |
Publishers/Platforms | ✅ High | For distributing infringing content. |
The grey area lies in training data. Courts haven’t yet ruled definitively on whether using copyrighted songs to train AI counts as infringement or fair use. Meanwhile, AI-generated works themselves aren’t eligible for copyright unless a human provides substantial creative input — leaving them in legal limbo.
The Educational Mirage
Some argue that AI music helps people learn genres, production styles, or vocal techniques. But this “education” often lacks context. It’s like learning to paint by watching a printer — technically impressive, but creatively hollow.
True musical education involves:
- Struggle and iteration: Learning through mistakes.
- Emotional connection: Expressing what words can’t.
- Cultural lineage: Understanding the roots of sound.
AI shortcuts bypass all of this. And in doing so, they risk flattening the rich terrain of human creativity into a sterile landscape of algorithmic mimicry.
Why This Fight Matters
This isn’t just about music. It’s about the future of art, storytelling, and human expression. If we allow machines to dominate creative spaces, we risk turning culture into content — optimized, monetized, and devoid of soul.
We must ask: Do we want a world where art is made by machines, or one where machines help humans make better art?
5 Key Takeaways
- AI-generated music blurs the line between innovation and erosion in the creative arts
- AI-generated music raises questions about copyright, culture, education, and artistic expression
- AI-generated music can replicate style without understanding, simulate emotion without feeling, and bypass effort with a prompt
- AI-generated music sets a dangerous precedent for young creators by potentially leading to a loss of depth, discipline, and joy of creation
