A whole ton of people brainstorming the lyrics, and one producer putting it to the most generic beats and chord sequences because they basically have to whip them up in real time and that means relying on templates and copy-pasting.

Never underestimate the laziness of everyone involved in AI, including the AI itself.

The person who generated it probably hadn't even seen the original. They're just generating new covers en masse and putting them as covers to versions of public domain books to get money out of it through sheer quantity.
