Technically we already have things like Vocaloid, which aren't AI yet, but do have their own holographic concerts that are popular in places like Japan and China. So having an AI artist come on stage and sing be too farfetched for me, despite the fact I'd hate it because it's a soulless entity devised by the corporate fascists. As for the quality of AI generated songs, no clue, but I can totally see them just ripping off up and coming human artists and then sending cease and desist letters to them for "StEaLiNg Ai GeNeRaTeD mUsIc" that was originally stolen or just stealing popular vocaloid songs and piggybacking off of every single person they can for profit.
A useful razor for the near future:
Copyright exists to encourage human creativity.
Copyright originally existed for this reason. It no longer exists for this reason, and hasn't for a long time.
