Ben,
I doubt that is true for all publishers.
I SUSPECT that if a publisher hears a song that sounds like a hit, the AI recording will become the starting point for the ultimate song that will be adapted to some singer's style.

In addition AI is too big and too undeniable and too impossible to hold back.
All the court stuff will settle out and a way will be figured out for AI to be acceptable to publishers and anyone else.
Too big, Too prolific, Too Good. Too cost effective. Too much money to be made. FOMO.

To me the biggest issue for a viable songwriter are what rights are signed away.
per my understanding, even if you pay SUNO's fee, you retain all rights to the song, but they have the right to promote the song anyway that they see fit without owing you any profits made. That, to me, would be the biggest stumbling block to a publisher getting involved with an AI song.

However, a version can be copyrighted that seemingly would not come under those rights.

It's confusing and probably evolving and open to interpretation at this moment.



As of now Nashville publishers do not except robot songs . It steals human jobs away
If you think I'm wrong , try pitching one. You're another person who gave up recording and fallen prey to robots, singing it praises . Its funny in politics you guys bitch on AI , but in music its alright .
