I am being pedantic although for sure some artists truly do have a very deep understanding of computers and electronic hardware for music production. The line is what I'm exploring. I think for instance with an NN one can most definitely have a vision, give a beatbox or musical rendition and continually edit it to their ultimate desire of what they heard in their mind. I don't see the lack of creativity in that use case although putting "make a rock song" in the prompt and hitting GO and that's it is definitely uninspired. That said that's been a debate for a long time already with electronic music and genres such as mashups or styles of music which are essentially built from nothing but samples. For decades already there's been artists mired in rumors they can't sing, play any instrument or write music aka they're just a face lip syncing or getting fully autotuned live.
That's all to say that I'm not sure what you're saying can be applied across the board without any concern for particular use cases. I understand what you're getting at and it depends if the circumstance on hand is that or isn't, NN's or not.
