But he plays live and sucks, there goes the illusion, write him off as an Ai fraud.

That debate is showing up a lot of places.
And it is interesting to watch.

Being capable of performing live as a human for other humans appears to be the human musicians last stronghold.

AI is writing , not just songs, but everything. Some universities are returning to face-to-face oral exams because stoner students are clicking a couple prompts and turning in term papers.

As for songwriting, there has always been a prevalent belief in the musical world that a true songwriter has to be "musical."
"Musical" includes being able to play an instrument and/or sing with reasonable skill levels.
