There has been loads of talk and debate about AI in music but recently udio.com has seen a lot of interest, especially on the back of a Depeche Mode inspired creation on youtube
This has really put the cat amongst the pigeons, and it is pretty obvious that the ILM has been trained using Depeche Mode probably from youtube. It’s scarily good, or is that bad, when the influences here are so brilliantly copied. Along with this I have tried udio, and to be fair, it’s pretty awesome! Whilst it won’t replace musicians just yet it is really getting there. Artist names are replaced, but it still often manages to pull something recognisable out of the search/tags you enter. You then need to extend or play around to get a longer song/tune. It’s still a bit hit and miss but I have included a few here and a link to my page. It’s fun, I think you should check it out because this AI generated music is a coming folks!

[…] I can see a time in the near future when you won’t be able to share data/links as we have done for years on Facebook and Instagram if Meta continue down this route on a “free” account. Of course this is Metas plan, and has been all along – do an X/Twitter and get people to stump up a subscription. My fwiends in the UK are vehemently against this though, with a near 100% committment to leaving the platform if you have to pay – I have said this all along, eventually that time will come, and a “free” account will be next to worthless. If you use youtube it is already widely known that your data has been sold to train AI – if you need any more proof of that see my article on another of my websites about AI and Depeche Mode HERE […]
