AI has successfully swamped many industries including healthcare, education, commerce, education, and others. It has impacted and revolutionized our way of running business and has impacted supply chain management. However, a lesser-known contribution of AI is the music industry.
It has started to play a significant role in the music industry, by analyzing large data sets AI can identify patterns and trends that are difficult to predict otherwise. Artificial intelligence can be integrated with music to improve the experience for both artists and listeners.
… In this article, you will find a comprehensive list of some of the best AI music generator software that can be used to improve the quality of music and streaming services. You can find all the peculiar features and benefits of using AI music generators. — Read More

Project S.A.T.U.R.D.A.Y — A Vocal Computing Toolbox
A toolbox for vocal computing built with Pion, whisper.cpp, and Coqui TTS. Build your own personal, self-hosted J.A.R.V.I.S powered by WebRTC
Project S.A.T.U.R.D.A.Y is a toolbox for vocal computing. It provides tools to build elegant vocal interfaces to modern LLMs. The goal of this project is to foster a community of like minded individuals who want to bring forth the technology we have been promised in sci-fi movies for decades. It aims to be highly modular and flexible while staying decoupled from specific AI Models. This allows for seamless upgrades when new AI technology is released. — Read More

Grammys CEO Breaks Down Rules Around AI Recordings: “This Is Something We Have to Pay Attention To”
As the world continues to grapple with the AI takeover, so are the Grammys.
The Recording Academy made headlines last week when it announced its rules about music created with artificial intelligence. Some feel like those songs should be banned, others say they are creative and innovative
The Grammys are listening to both sides — but don’t expect them to award a robot. — Read More
A.I. human-voice clones are coming for the Amazon, Apple, Google audiobook
Annual audiobook sales could reach over $30 billion within a decade, and time and cost of production suggest AI will play a bigger role in the future.
Google Play and Apple Books utilize AI-generated voices to some extent already, though there are high hurdles to recreating human voice pacing, intonation and emotion.
Voice actors say opportunities to clone their voices for speedier, cheaper production on some forms of audiobooks can’t be ignored. — Read More
Introducing Voicebox: The first generative AI model for speech to generalize across tasks with state-of-the-art performance
Meta AI researchers have achieved a breakthrough in generative AI for speech. We’ve developed Voicebox, the first model that can generalize to speech-generation tasks it was not specifically trained to accomplish with state-of-the-art performance.
Like generative systems for images and text, Voicebox creates outputs in a vast variety of styles, and it can create outputs from scratch as well as modify a sample it’s given. But instead of creating a picture or a passage of text, Voicebox produces high-quality audio clips. The model can synthesize speech across six languages, as well as perform noise removal, content editing, style conversion, and diverse sample generation. — Read More

The Beatles will release a new and ‘final record’ this year, Paul McCartney says — with a little help from AI
It’s the news fans of the Fab Four thought they would never see: The Beatles will release a new song this year featuring vocals from John Lennon, with a little help from artificial intelligence, Paul McCartney said Tuesday.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4, the 80-year-old McCartney confirmed that the band — whose cultural influence may have been unmatched in the 20th century — will release “the final Beatles record” this year, having used cutting-edge technology to extract Lennon’s voice from an old demo recording.
“We just finished it up and it’ll be released this year,” he said. — Read More
Meta’s Open-Source ‘MusicGen’ AI Is Like ChatGPT for Tunes
Meta has released another open-source AI model trained on hundreds of thousands of music tracks online.
AI has managed to intrude on most artistic endeavors, and now it’s fully come for the music industry. Meta has now announced the release of the open source version of its music generation AI model that uses simple prompts to generate music like ChatGPT or other large language model-based AI generate text.
… [T]he model uses an EnCodec audio tokenizer based on a transformer language model. Users can demo MusicGen through Hugging Face’s API, though, generating some music could take some time depending on how many users are using it at once. You can use the Hugging Face site to create your own instance of the model for much faster outputs. Otherwise, you can download the code and run it yourself if you have the know-how and the rig to support it. — Read More
The Rise and Rise of Voice AI
I was wondering about the relative frequency of certain topics that intrigue me in regard to contemporary, technology-oriented sound studies. For a quick glimpse, first I charted “machine listening” in Google Trends, then adding “audio surveillance” and, for a broader swath, “audio deepfake.” The three terms were almost identical in the narrow band of popularity they populated for the past few years. I sought to expand the subject matter with a fourth item, something related to artificial intelligence.
Needless to say, we’re in the midst of AI Summer. These days “AI + [anything]” — following the rise in chatter around DALL-E 2, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, ChatGPT, DeepMind, Bard, and OpenAI, among other projects — is going to be more popular now than it was even six or seven months ago. — Read More
Apple’s new ‘Personal Voice’ feature can create a voice that sounds like you or a loved one in just 15 minutes
As part of its preview of iOS 17 accessibility updates coming this year, Apple has announced a pair of new features called Live Speech and Personal Voice. Live Speech allows users to type what they want to say and have it be spoken out.
Personal Voice, on the other hand, is a way for people who are at risk of losing their ability to speak to create and save a voice that sounds like them. Apple says it’s designed for people at risk of losing their ability to speak, such as those with a recent diagnosis of ALS. Read More
