In reality people learn how to write lyrics because they listen to songs. Nobody writes a song without listening to thousands of them and many human written songs are really similar to each other. Otherwise the music industry wouldn’t be littered with lawsuits. I don’t really see the difference.
It may surprise you to learn that 'people' and 'not people's are treated differently under the law
Where did I ever say that a stupid AI should get any rights to its own product?
That’s not what I meant by that. People should have the rights to the products they produce using the tools at their disposal.
