Composers, Beware of A.I. Music Video generation Companies

I did some research on the possibility of making a music video of a song I wrote with the plan of using an A,I, video generation company for production of a video of the song for Youtube distribution.  I researched several well-known companies.  To my surprise, they violate standard copyright ownership by taking substantial ownership of content prepared using their site.  In other words, they can resell your song or video to anyone and not repay you at all.  This is stated in their terms of service agreement that you agree/consent to before using their service.  You sign away substantial copyright ownership of your creative content.   So, I create the music, the lyrics, the story of the song, the character singing the song, and I don't have exclusive ownership of my work.

Let me get this straight, you went to an AI company that steals other people's art to make your music video and were then shocked to learn... that they'd also steal your art? Diva... the fool is you, not them.

Regardless of who the "fool" may, or may not be, the OP has value if others are convinced not to engage in the same behavior.
