Not sure if mentioned or discussed already. I ran across this song recently and was curious, so I did a deep dive into this group and song list. Discovered that the overwhelming majority of listeners posted that this band and all the songs are AI generated. Not sure how I feel about all the AI music stuff that is being created but I have to say the music listed by Appalachian White Lightning is pretty darn good.

AI songs suck. The music is OK in general because there is musically nothing much new that hasn't already been done, but lyrics tend to be the same old thing that has been done a million times. That is a problem, because there are always new ideas that can be found lyrically. This song that you posted is a glaring example.
It's just copycat crap lyrically.
Hey rich man, look at all of us poor people! No new twist, same old song.
Almost every AI song that I have heard is the same way ( there is 1 single exception that I've heard, it was posted on this site, ("I Met Your Mamma at a Donkey Show" that was a genius and funny idea to me).
A real writer doesn't need AI. Anybody that uses it for anything except fun, should be shamed and embarrassed.

ETA: If you want real human music in this sort of genre, check out "Southern Culture On the Skids. Great band, cool, well written, fun songs.
I can't believe they aren't more well known.

That 3-knob Les Paul with another guitar’s cutaway would be a giveaway if the shitty derivative music wasn’t enough.

I posted it; thanks for noticing. I thought it was great.

Shouldn't be allowed to be reproduced without an AI label splattered across both sides. Much like we did with cigarettes, bad drugs, radiation, and pornography. And the same thing with auto-tune for the outta-tune.
