Linden Jay, who helped write Doja Cat's hit song "Woman," thinks AI is an exciting tool for coming up with ideas, but not a replacement for the skill of writing a good song. He uses AI to make his own voice sound like a famous artist, so he can see if a song is going in the right direction. Aaron Horn, Linden's co-writer, agrees that AI is a tool that can help with the creative process. He compares it to a rhyming dictionary, which suggests rhymes for poems and lyrics.

Jessica Agombar, who wrote "What a Man Gotta Do" for the Jonas Brothers, finds inspiration in AI's abilities, especially in copying voices. But she believes that real artistry will always be found in natural songwriting and producing, with imperfect vocals and rough drafts. Kamille, who has worked with Little Mix, Mabel, and Kylie Minogue, tries not to rely too much on AI. She thinks that the most important thing in songwriting is expressing emotions from the heart, and that shouldn't be lost as technology gets better.

While AI has its good points, these songwriters tell aspiring musicians not to depend too much on AI and to embrace their own experiences and humanity. They think that machines can't make music on their own and that AI can't copy the depth of human emotion. In conclusion, AI can be a helpful tool in the music industry, but it shouldn't take the place of the artistry and personal touch that comes from human songwriting.
