I think that your viewpoint on the issue of AI and songwriting lacks clarity. it may be that you are skewing your viewpoint in order to glamorize the Dom.
Sound - Sing - SONG.
A song cannot be a song If there is no sound. musical sound. “Lyrics,” not coupled to a musical sound, is merely a “writing.” It is not a song. Lyrics written with the intent of becoming a song, are still not a song.
I recently used AI to develop a Melody for me. I coupled that with a lyrical theme. AI did a surprisingly good job of writing lyrics to a pleasing melody. If someone had posted it on this site, I would have genuinely complimented it.
Legally that song (musical work) may belong to me, but I don't consider it my song. It only exists because AI created it.
Sound - Sing - SONG
You may have years of personal writings that you consider lyrics. But until AI coupled them to a musical melody, they were not even lyrics. They were writings, rhyming and poetically inclined.
I know you claim to hear the melodies in your head. In my head, I can put on Superman’s cape and fly, but if that is the only place that it exists…then it doesn’t exist.
AI turned years of your writings into actual “songs.” Your several songs of the last two weeks exist only because of Udio.
Udio is the musician(s) , the arranger, the primary producer. You are the contributing poet, more or less.
