The term "Home" can often times be mistaken as a physical object, yet I beg to differ. For many, Home is filled with memories of you growing up, whether it be good or bad. It is filled with the people you love, as well as it is apart of who you are. I believe there are many definitions to the word "Home", yet when I begin to think about such a word, I connect it to a person. For me, there are people that are automatically connected to the idea of the term "home." This idea stands for just more than just the place you sleep, but rather it's about what the word "home" truly defines, and why it reminds me of certain people. Home stands for comfort, for peace. It's where you can find love and happiness or possibly it's where you feel the most safe and can truly be yourself. Even though many people could possibly fit those characteristics, there's one person who stands for it all for us. There's always that one person who allows us to feel safe, allows us to speak our mind and listens to what we truly have to offer to this world. In many different words, this person is our home. There is happiness and laughter with them, but just as home can be a bad place, there will also be some bad times involved with this person. But the driving force that stands out about that person, is trough the bad times, it prospers your relationship and makes you stronger than before. The person this article is about doesn't really matter, it really matters more that you go out into the world and just find that person. Once you find them, don't let anything happen to them. Don't let stupid, unnecessary things come in between you and that person. At the end of the day, remember that this person will always be there for you, as you will always be there for them. Enjoy every single second with them, and don't ever take them for granted. Don't forget to tell them you love them, or just a simple "Thank You" for being them. It may be hard to notice that there's that one person who defines "home" when you are surrounded by so many amazing people in your life, but next time you're with that person, take a second and just really look at them. Could you imagine life without them? That answer is up to you, but if it is a yes, cherish that moment and cherish that person.

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
