All we need to know is the following to see that you absolutely deserve to be paid for your work and defend your property interests.
What I know of PROFESSIONALS is that they work hard to be their best in each and every performance

AI is developing and changing and I have no idea or opinion where it will end up.

But I expect that those like you who craft their own music will continue to infuse their human creativity into it which will differentiate it from AI Muzak and deserve appropriate compensation.

Until then, my music will be my property. And I can leave it to my heirs.

“SO what is VALUABLE... selling music or playing and creating music?” Brian
Both, if one wants to get paid for their hard work. I knew an editor of a local paper once. He loved writing weekly commentaries. But NO ONE in the business would ever consider not paying him.

“Literally millions of songs an hour are being created already. As it improves, there will no longer even be a point to discussing human or robot because there will be 10,000,000,000 robot works for every 1 a human creates” – Brian
People who license my music want it to be cleared. My publisher takes responsibility for that. And there’s a strong market for legitimate music, without worries of lawsuits.

BTW, what a lousy world it will be when all creative minds are put to rest.

Best, John smile

If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
