Shock. Pure shock. A slap in the face.

I recently wrote about my attempt to create an energetic, motivational anthem for darters — something to give them a mental boost just before a tournament or a stressful scoring session.

That first attempt failed miserably.

Until I stumbled upon a tool called www.suno.com.

A full song… made in 3 minutes. I’m not exaggerating.

I used ChatGPT to generate lyrics, picked a genre, and gave Suno a simple prompt.

And then — boom. There it was. A complete song: composed, sung, produced. In three minutes.

Here was my exact prompt (there’s not much room for more, unfortunately):

The score is mine – motivational alt-rock anthem in the style of The Score (Born for This)
Male voice, 50% weirdness, 100% in line with the style

🎵 The result:

Then I thought: what if I gave it a techno spin?

I reused the lyrics, changed the style, and kept the prompt simple:

The Score Is Mine – high-energy techno anthem in the style of Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Big room

🎵 The result:

😳 And that’s when it hit me.

I played it at home. My wife listened, and said what I was already feeling:

This is amazing.

And terrifying. Deeply terrifying.

Think about what usually goes into making a song:

  • A songwriter

  • A vocalist

  • Musicians

  • Recording & mixing

  • Editing

  • Mastering

  • Producing

  • Distribution and marketing

All of that… replaced in 3 minutes.

And the result?

Maybe it won’t win a Grammy, but it’s real. It sounds like something you could actually use.

Is AI going to change the world?

We say that casually all the time: “AI is going to change everything.”

But now I felt it.

This tiny experiment — as trivial as it may seem — hit me like a freight train.

You feel it in your gut:

We’re being made obsolete.

Not in everything.

Not immediately.

But it has started. And it’s accelerating fast.

I’m proud of what I made.

But I’m also a little scared.

No — really scared.

And still… one question keeps echoing in my head

If we can make something that moves, motivates, and inspires in 3 minutes

What could we create in 3 days? 3 months? 3 years?

I’ll keep experimenting.

But I’ll bring my humanity with me.

Because that —

is the one thing AI hasn’t taken yet.
