Music’s complicated tryst with generative AI tools, is only just beginning
Hindustan Times‘A trance track, ideal for a Scandinavia night, looking at the northern lights’. That’s the prompt we punched into Stability AI’s new Stable Audio 2.0 generative artificial intelligence tool. Tech giant Adobe’s latest generative AI experiment Project Music GenAI Control is being built quickly, for eventual addition into the company’s Premiere Pro and Audition tools later this year. “We’re working closely with our music partners, including Universal Music Group, to develop an AI framework to help us work toward our common goals,” says YouTube in a statement. He writes, “AI applications for music creation have been available since the last century but, until recently, their adoption has been limited to a small niche of researchers and engineers and their ontology limited to experimentation in computational creativity.” Late last year, Google Deepmind’s experimental Lyria AI music generation model was unveiled to the world.
