Artificial Intelligence, artificial art??

I ran across this a few days ago, and it's bothered me ever since. 
The best song and performance I've heard in years... is a computer program.  The "artist" is called Michael Bennett.  Apparently this has been around for a while, and I'm just now coming to the party. 
So, is the value less because it's AI generated?  Where is music headed?  Will a version of ChatGPT be the next Chopin, John Lennon, Lynard Skynard, or Da Vinci?  If it is, what does it mean to us???
If you haven't heard or seen this, watch and think.

Scott, What a good song. I have read many science fiction books and seen many sci-fi movies over the years, so none of this AI stuff surprises me. But it's quite spooky the road we are now all traveling.... Thankfully, I'm in my 70s.
