I'm curious about how people are using Ai. There are lots of steps that go into making a complete song:

And I'm sure there are more steps in between. In what stage or stages have you used Ai? How did it turn out?

Personally, I've only used Ai for help in writing lyrics. What I've found is that if you tell it to write some lyrics to a song, it will spit out something that looks superficially good, but it doesn't really have a story arc, and it leaves you emotionally flat. So what I've done is to map out the story arc, and I explain to the Ai something like: "The next two lines should convey that the narrator realizes he needs to come up with money -- quickly!!" Then I might have the Ai generate several alternatives to choose from. This can work. I've found that if the Ai has a short enough assignment, and it knows exactly what to do, it can generate alternatives, one of which might be good.

I have yet to experiment with suno.com or alternatives like it.
