We can tell the difference between muzak and "real music"; we just dislike the muzak. But the real risk and likelihood is that we get to the point that AI will be generating art that is indistinguishable from human-generated art, and it's only muzak if someone subscribes to the idea that the content of art is less relevant than its provenance. Some people will, particularly rich people who use art as a status signifier/money laundering vehicle, but mass media artists will struggle to find buyers among the less discerning mass audience.
