I understand that you can't afford it. I have been a poor hobbyist before. I've been so poor I had to try and do all my projects on an overheating piece of hot garbage government issued laptop and I felt very hard done by for being someone with expensive hobbies that only rich people could afford to actually excel at. But there are free music options. AI is an existential threat to our very right to expression as human being and you should not vote with your money for it to wipe out creatives as a fellow creative. There are also struggling amateur music producers out there who are attempting to get good and make a break. They don't deserve to be drowned forever by a machine.

As humans, the fundamental way we derive meaning from life is creation. The purpose of automation has always been to allow for humans to have more space to be creative, as this is really what we excel at and enjoy. If we insist on replacing our creative functions with machines, we will make ourselves obsolete, apart from the few CEOs who own the massive servers that nobody else can afford to own and closed source super-powerful AI systems. Even if you think these ghoul-like assholes would actually care to help the destitute masses whose jobs have rapidly become obsolete on an unprecedented scale that our economy cannot handle, humans require meaning and goals to survive. If we have to all just be kept alive by server owners because our passions are made irrelevant by mass producing robots, humans will die out just from the psychological stress. This is a real thing, one of the top indicators of long lifespan is older people retaining passions, goals and some level of work.

This is of course all worst case scenario stuff I'm talking about here. But I struggle to see an argument for how allowing AI to take over every aspect of our society would not lead to plenty of horrible consequences.

Your convenience is not worth it, I'm sorry.
