Non-clickbait link: https://aitestkitchen.withgoogle.com/experiments/music-lm https://aitestkitchen.withgoogle.com/experiments/music-lm Its part of AI test kitchen, if you were already part of that for playing with BARD and stuff you just need to log in and give it a go. If not, you'll have to get on the waitlist. When I asked I got access within a day, but might be much slower now with so much interest. Here are a bunch of examples of the music: https://google-research.github.io/seanet/musiclm/examples/ https://google-research.github.io/seanet/musiclm/examples/ In my opinion it isn't exactly great. It doesn't do much creativity. Eg. I asked it to make a dance song from a club but have classical instruments as well. It was unable to do that. It's mono and can often be out of tune. We will see how it improves, but this certainly isn't taking away jobs for musicians in it's current state.

Those examples are really hard to listen to, except for maybe the techno/dancebeat ones. Part of the problem is the awful sound, would be much more interesting to have scores generated by AI and then have musicians record it. As it is you can't really tell why it sounds so awful.

  Yes, I actually found that painful to listen to. Interesting to see where it goes, but for this erstwhile musician it’s like fingers in a chalk board.

    Give it 3 months. We've gone through this already with generative image AI. Another vibe I'm getting from reading these comments is that musicians clearly have discerning taste. Unfortunately, I don't think the public really does. I certainly don't. All these samples sound "good" to me.

      Yeah I’m sure it will get better, but I’d you have a musical ear this is pure torture.

Openai's Jukebox, which is maybe two years old now, is musically much more creative and interesting. Its sound quality is horrendous and it's amusingly unstable, but the density of good ideas in what it produces is orders of magnitude better than this.
