programming is basically complicated shuffling very complicated bits around. You can describe anything like that; it's what defines intelligence.

Also yeah, there will still be musicians in 5 years, as will there be musicians post-singularity. Some people just really enjoy doing it themselves. Don't see your point there

What artistic value would there be in typing into a prompt "make me an electronica song"?

Artistic values are what I choose them to be. They're subjective. If I enjoy a piece of music, it has some value for me.

Monetary values are what will be lost. If companies can get what they need for basically free, they won't employ artists.

Artists can choose to continue doing art, not for the money but because it has some value for themselves.
