Do you actually own your AI music? The answer might surprise you.

In this episode, I break down the legal reality of AI-generated content — what the US Copyright Office has said, why your "hit song" might not be protectable, and the hybrid workflow that establishes real human authorship.

You'll learn:

• Why prompts aren't copyrightable
• The "Human Moat" concept
• The Studio-First Method for creating protectable work
• Why sync deals and royalties depend on documented authorship

This isn't legal advice. But it is the reality of building a catalog in 2026.

The full Studio-First Method is in my book Unlock Suno: Studio Edition.
