And where does that leave the emotion behind human-made tracks like "Back to Black" or "Smells Like Teen Spirit"? AI-generated music might be technically flawless, but can it ever truly replicate the heart and soul that drives a great song? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
