As AI slowly creeps it way into every facet of our digital lives — from essay writing to conversations with therapists to the generation of original art — it's the least bit surprising that artificial intelligence would also take a step into music. It's also not surprising that tech giant Google would be the first major player on the scene.
The company is reportedly building an AI bot that can create "original" music from both text and sound prompts — users would be able to type in increasingly specific prompts noting genres and styles or even build songs based on a hummed or whistled melody, according to reports. The future app is known in-house as MusicLM.
The information was revealed in a research paper released on Jan. 26, describing MusicLM as a "model generating high-fidelity music from text descriptions" that "generates music at 24 kHz that remains consistent over several minutes." The paper explains that songs can be created from richly written captions, such as:
The main soundtrack of an arcade game. It is fast-paced and upbeat, with a catchy electric guitar riff. The music is repetitive and easy to remember, but with unexpected sounds, like cymbal crashes or drum rolls.
Additional sequences of timed text prompts help build the structure of songs, along with a library of sounds and other AI prompts generated from sources like art archives.
Examples of the AI-generated songs have already been posted to Google's Github account, part of a preliminary release of a 5,500 music-text pair dataset known as MusicCaps.
The unveiling of such a platform will inevitably stir additional conversations about the role of artificial intelligence in intellectual property theft and copyright infringement, generated by a plethora of artists and art repositories who haven't consented to public use of their art in the creation of AI bots like these — others, meanwhile, are capitalizing on the surge in AI fronted tech. Additional AI developments also pose unique risks for the humans behind the tech as well, as exploited workforces face the brunt of data mining and moderation.
As for now, the Google AI music maker is not going to be released any time soon, with the company explaining ongoing concerns about cultural programming biases, glitches, and concerns about plagiarism that have to be resolved before its launch.
More in Artificial Intelligence, Google

Give us useful, functional AI’s. Music is something AI can do but shouldn’t. ChatGPT has functional uses like helping with code, linting, writing text summaries etc.
ReplyDeleteAI will never make music more beautiful than truly talented musicians.
ReplyDeletethat will be machine learning job ))
Deletedepends from musicians. 99% of musicians are playing totally empty music. For example jazzists. For sure AI will be better
DeleteLudicrous.
DeleteI’m sure AI can’t make the type of music that I like.
Deletegreat, so just don’t listen to it. Why are you so upset? You have a choice. Feel free to use it.
DeleteUkraine’s knocking on his door
DeleteI am not upset. I just know that AI does not have emotions therefore they will never make music more beautiful than humans. It’s humanity and life experiences that allow musicians to write beautiful lyrics and make amazing music. It allows them to connect with their listeners. Their music changes lives and makes the world a better place.
Deletegood music is made with talent and heart, AI may have all the technical skills in the world but unless it becomes sentient it will never have heart
DeleteI agree, it’s humanity, life experiences, and emotions that allow people to write beautiful music.
Delete99%? you mean musician or politician?
Deleteas AI continues to advance, I suspect, in the not too distant future, you will hear and like a song, and not even realise it was created by AI. As much as we like to believe the human mind, with its emotions, feelings and passion, is the only thing that can produce meaningful music, I suspect AI will prove that is not the case.
Deleteno AI will ever have a beautiful singing voice.
Deleteno my friend. United Kingdom was supporting Authoritarianism in slavonian countries. UK prevented democracy in slavonian countries. Russian oligarchs bought all available realty in London.
DeleteUK provoked this war and supporting it.
UK doing this hundreds years with another people.
What you have done with Yugoslavia? What are you doing now? You are guilty, my friend.
You are fighting with our hands
na it will come up with advanced AI
DeleteWhy do we keep making AI to do all the stuff we like doing like drawing, and writing, and making music. How about a do the f’ing dishes AI?
ReplyDeleteso true. So many demanding jobs out there. Music is already soulless enough
Deleteseriously.
Deleteart is as much about the process of making as the output. Everyone can draw, those who draw lots draw well. People want instant output, usually for commercial purposes, at the expense of what art provides in the act of creation.
DeleteIf AI produces the goods, most people won't care how or who created it. Just the end result. They might care about the cost, but I suspect AI will beat us on that too.
Deletedon't worry, it's all getting automated
DeleteBritain had a similar thing in the late 80s called “Stock, Aitkin and Waterman”
ReplyDeleteThen Sweden took over with Max Martin in the 2000’s…
DeleteSad. Real creativity is being no replaced by bots.
ReplyDeleteIt can’t possibly be any worse than Kanye… can it?
ReplyDeleteGoogle is behind, AI has been making music for a long time, Daft Punk only just broke up and they started in the 90s. Kraftwerk started in the late 70s, man.
ReplyDeletethat's electronic music, not AI music. That was created using electronic instruments, but ultimately it was human intelligence that put the songs together. Now we are taking out the human element, and letting Artificial Intelligence create.
DeleteI was joking but yes I agree. As with everything regarding AI in the "creative" field (AI generated Art and Music) it's good only to gather ideas, not good for a finished product per se. That's all AI should be used for in my opinion when used in the creative field.
DeleteTo be fair there are already daws that give you variations of the stems etc.So its already in its infant stages
ReplyDelete🗑️
ReplyDeleteChina is already doing this with vocals
ReplyDelete😒
ReplyDeleteSo did every DJ from the 90s. Newsflash, it was all garbage
ReplyDeleteNever.
ReplyDeleteVoxx Romana didn't we watch a documentary about this in 2010?
ReplyDeleteJust because its made one it doesn’t mean it’s any good
ReplyDeleteAt least the real life version of The Terminator comes with Spotify. FFS>
ReplyDeleteI mean they have a McDonald's that's completely robotic I am sure robots can take over the music industry also and play better than humans... In fact who needs humans I think once robots are fully AI will just take over the planet and get rid of us knowing that we are the problem and we are destroying the planet it may seem like a movie plot but in reality it probably makes a lot of sense to the future of the planet to survive humans are actively destroying the planet robots and AI will probably figure this out and stop it
ReplyDeleteUh-oh...isn't there an AI to just live instead of us?
ReplyDeleteWell, just maybe this will be more talented than humans
ReplyDeleteAbout time need to replace all these mofos like da baby, travis scott, kid curdi, miggos, all these no talent artist. Mumble rap bs
ReplyDeleteIt's called Taylor Swift.🤭
ReplyDeleteMusic is A. I. ish enough already..

ReplyDeletefree to watch on YouTube it might change how you see the world.
"InterReflections"
We are one family 👪
Do you truly believe money was ment to solve all our problems , or that it was one of the problems we were MENT to solve.
wait, this happened like 15 years ago? wdym?
ReplyDeletehttps://youtu.be/Yb4H098aMRI
ReplyDeleteMusicLM?
ReplyDeleteWe really need money making AI
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the juxtaposition to this!
ReplyDeleteMagnus 😅
ReplyDeletekommer inte göra någon större skillnad mot den populärmusik som toppar listorna idag 😬 #gringubbe
DeleteWhy the hell don't you concentrate on on building something useful? Who needs AI music? Why don't you smart people act a little more , well, smart?
ReplyDeleteI knew it! I wish AI takes over big tech, big pharma, and mainstream media as well lol 😝
ReplyDeleteand the web
DeleteCan't be worse than the sh*t that's out now.
ReplyDeleteNot really that big of a deal it doesn't do lyrics very well and nothing is stopping anyone from making music. It's just more competition among the millions of musicians already out there. People may or may not buy it.
ReplyDeleteLet’s let creative humans create music and write. Let’s let AI do menial and repetitive work.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's better than mumble rap and will sound the same as all the highly paid electronic music DJ's.
ReplyDeleteChatGPT unleashed the seven evils of Pandora box.
ReplyDeleteÇa me donne envie de vomir !
ReplyDeletePourquoi !!?? 😳😳 c’est à cause de Jul, Aya Nakatrucbidule et autres adeptes de la destruction du patrimoine culturel?
Wait! You mean that auto tune crap from the last ten years WASN’T?
ReplyDeleteListen. Marvin Gaye will still sell on into the decades. The latest hit from the band We Not Wokesters was never going to, AI or no AI.
