When I use AI to make a work of music, am I the composer? or is it the AI? or am I and the AI co-composers? And when I play the music that I made with AI, am I the performer? or its it the AI? or are we co-performers?

You absolutely are the composer. You can hit a keyboard randomly and write down the notes and call yourself a composer, using a tool that requires your input is more involved than that.

Uh but when your tool does it for you, you have not done anything. I have a coffee machine, I press a Button. The machine made the coffee. Not me

Yup. Same as "writers" who use AI.
Not creativity, not art. Cheating.

You cannot copyright works created by AI so be careful.
As far as credits go it depends on how honest you want to be. You can pull a Milli Vanilli and take credit for AI's compositions and performance, but history shows that doing so usually does not end well.

You can if you programmed the AI, or if the AI user agreement signs over ownership of the completed work to the user.

You might want to check with the U.S. Copyright office that is not what their rules state.

Assuming your question is serious (quite an assumption, all things considered), well, you're certainly not a composer. Beyond that, who cares?
