Matt Damon goes into this in an interview on Hot Ones, apparently in the past what you mention wasn’t as much of an issue due to the home market with DVD sales. But streaming doesn’t give that same return on investment, I think because the movie makers just get money from streaming services buying the rights and maybe some residuals, so theater profit is the main focus.




That’s the thing, I struggle to call it their music and not the AI’s. I’ve messed with Suno and there’s not really much support for tweaking the output to your tastes. If all you’re doing is feeding a prompt and maybe some lyrics to an AI and picking out the best generation I don’t see any difference from a commission and trying to claim you’re the creator.
Now if there was more support for self-expression like img2img and ControlNet with images in the form of isolated stems/instrumentation that follows a given chord progression/mixing I’d say there’s more of a sense of ownership, but as-is there’s not much you can do after the output is made that someone else couldn’t do with the same prompt+model+seed.
