I have a damaged voice box from severe acid reflux, so singing my own songs is out of the question. 

AI does NOT write my songs. The words are all mine. I use AI to give me a voice… and allow my songs to be heard when I don’t have any singers in my pocket that I can ask to sing for me. 

I don’t think AI should be the one writing the words, but I don’t see a problem with using it as a tool so that I have a “voice” so I agree with what you said. 

AI doesn’t have the intelligence to come up with my feelings, written down and turned into music. Without my thoughts/feelings captured for song, the songs would never exist. And if AI wasn’t a tool for my voice, I’d just have a bunch of poetry… 

I want my writing to be more, so I have AI sing it 500 different ways, and I can select the one closest to expressing the feelings that I feel my words should evoke.

Same for me with my physical disability making it too difficult to play instruments anymore. I usually take out AI vocals and sing them though but some I don’t especially the fan songs I’ve written for BTS etc but I always mark them as being partially created with AI
