Suno, an AI music generator
- throwaway4736 3y agoThis reads like paid placement to me. Gross.
- heurist 3y agoTitles that include "the X that Y" are always a signal to skip for me.
- dharma1 3y agoCheesy headline but the app is better than any other AI music app I’ve tried before. Hours of fun
- hhh 3y agoSuno is pretty good, but this feels like a puff piece.
- lenerdenator 3y agoVery best-case scenario: this is a lateral move for the art of music.
- taco_emoji 3y agoGreat, we need to auto-generate even more shitty art

- elif 3y agosuno v3 actually generates some really good music. most genres are more formulaic than people want to believe.
- AlexandrB 3y agoThe real question is who is going to make the next new genre if there's no money in being a musician. You can't tell suno v3 to make a "grunge" song if "grunge" doesn't exist yet.
- bamboozled 3y agoInsert basically anything here. We’re destroying incentives at a rate of knots, oh well…
- fennecbutt 3y agoYeah you can? Similar to how with stable diffusion I can ask for a creature that doesn't exist. Most of human creativity is just evolution is existing stuff after all. Look at all fantasy creatures, they're all based in part off real animals.
- elif 3y agoThis is actually my favorite thing to do in suno. "lowfi, chill, accordion" "breakbeat, doom, xylophone" You can literally invent 4 genres in parallel in 10 seconds.
- Jensson 3y ago> most genres are more formulaic than people want to believe. The biggest crime is copyrighting the best intro chord sequences in the 1960's, and since then everyone has to make slight variations or they would be called out for copying. We can't make good music today due to copyrights...
- Pine_Mushroom 3y agoChord sequences are not subject to copyright.
- Jensson 3y agoWhat else stops people from playing the first 10 seconds from a song? Its just a few chords in a sequence. The reason I've heard people don't do that is that they will get a copyright strike.
- CuriouslyC 3y agoIt's more about raising the quality floor.
- famouswaffles 3y agoThis is a Suno generation - https://on.soundcloud.com/SrcwN https://on.soundcloud.com/SrcwN
- boringg 3y agoImpressive and at the same time brutal.
- AlexandrB 3y agoIt's funny/telling that it's seemingly so self-referential - the lyrics I can understand are about "synthetic harmonies", "mechanized cadences", etc. This is kind of like how >90% of NFTs was art referencing Bitcoin or cryptocurrency memes. Is it possible to make something about actual human problems/experiences with this? I'm guessing so, but this is certainly not a good example of that. I do wonder how much of this stuff is going to flood Spotify and co. and make payouts to actual artists even smaller.
- nicksrose7224 3y agotbh i could not tell the difference between this & generic technostep made by people. Sounds just as crappy to me
- ado__dev 3y agoI've played around with Suno a bit. As someone that has literally negative music talent, it was cool to be able to create music. I can't tell you if it was good by any musical standards, but I had fun with it and some lols, so from my perspective, a fun app.
- ShamelessC 3y agoHow exactly does a company of 12 people implementing the research of others on compute paid for by investors lacking in technical savvy “change everything”? Is it really possible to just pay for an article in rolling stone now? You could write essentially the exact same piece about dozens of other start ups in the generative AI space right now. Might be effective PR, but it’s bad advertising.

- m3kw9 3y agoMusic with no soul, it would be like eating fake meat that tasted very real. Not bad if you weren’t told before hand
- friend_and_foe 3y agoTo be fair, most commercialized music is formulaic, the only difference is that people had to be paid to record it. I think the biggest problem with AI generated stuff is that the I in AI is hype, these things can't create real novelty. They're a new, poorly understood form of compression. If creativity is left to these AIs then the music will sound the same in 20 years at best, or more likely, degrade/converge when they're all trained on each other's and their own material.
- chefandy 3y agoLots of art techniques-- e.g. a basic set of shapes to help draw heads with correct proportions-- are formulaic. That doesn't make them any less artistic than someone just throwing down marks based on their gut instinct. Music itself has been boiled down to a mathematical and artistic scaffolding that people have worked within for centuries. There are also a whole hell of a lot of creative decisions in between the sheet music and the finished product: instrumentation and all of the subtleties that go into it, recording itself is SO deep and heavily affects the outcome, everything that goes into post production to add all of the color and texture that makes it great... even within recording it, do you know how many hours people spend pouring over really great studio takes because they all land a little differently? This just takes what other people have already done and mushes it together. Is it interesting? Interesting as hell. Could it be useful to people making art? I'm a commercial artist in a different realm and generative AI has been very useful in generating specific references or doing some sort of concept test instead of sketching it out. It could be used as a tool to help make art, but is it making art? Not by any definition I think makes sense. The idea that this is just an incremental step in current commercial music production is only possible if you don't actually know what it takes to make it. The very same thing is true of video games, TV& movies, graphic design, etc. etc. etc.

- Legend2440 3y ago>“The long-running dystopian ideal of separating difficult, messy, undesirable, and despised humanity from its creative output is at hand,” My god, these people are so melodramatic. If I could roll my eyes any harder they'd fall out of my head.
- bangaroo 3y agoi threw $10 into it to play with the new V3 algorithm much like dall-e it's wildly impressive at first glance and the more you bang your head against it, the more the cracks show it's very repetitive, doesn't often fit lyrics properly into bars, song structure often makes very little sense, the list goes on it is simultaneously very cool and incapable of accomplishing its goal reliably.
- spaceman_2020 3y agoHave you found any tool that can make sections instead of entire songs? For instance, I want a specific type of beat or horns section for one of my tracks. Usually means digging through libraries but an AI tool would be perfect for it

- TZubiri 3y agoIt's also a prototype, you are numb and spoiled by the speed of technological advancements. Like with good art, you need to learn how to appreciate it, see it not for whether it can be useful to you for 10$, but for what it can be in the future with a cost structure so cheap they can afford to run it on 10$ subscriptions.
- chefandy 3y ago> It's also a prototype, you are numb and spoiled by the speed of technological advancements. > Like with good art, you need to learn how to appreciate it, see it not for whether it can be useful to you for 10$, but for what it can be in the future with a cost structure so cheap they can afford to run it on 10$ subscriptions. Nonsense. This isn't a university research team or a FOSS project-- it's a commercial art product and the gee whiz factor doesn't put it beyond critique of its artistic merit. The person being disappointed for what they got for $10 is a whole lot less spoiled than the tech industry that feels entitled to charge people money for a product and only expect positive feedback. If you want to buy this because of the novelty factor, go nuts; other people need to see if products are useful to them before they buy things, and other people's experiences are the primary way we determine that.
- cdme 3y agoCouldn’t be less interested — art is interesting for its human qualities. This is pointless dreck.
- tgv 3y agoThere is also music for other functions: entertainment, background, dancing. Perhaps it finds niche there, because -let's be honest- most of the music in that category is made on the automatic pilot anyway. But I also find it an idiotic attempt. It doesn't inform us about anything, and it makes any idiot with a mouse think they can create. Instead, they're listening to music that's worse than what YouTube has to offer.
- NoraCodes 3y ago> Perhaps it finds niche there, because -let's be honest- most of the music in that category is made on the automatic pilot anyway. Can you give some examples? In my experience, most music, even music we think of as banal or boring, had a pretty significant amount of effort, and creativity, put into its creation.
- tgv 3y agoIt takes some effort to learn, but once you know, it's not that hard. Musicians under time pressure to produce (and that's most of them) don't try to be very original and take all the shortcuts they can. Make a bar with a simple beat, pick some sounds, a standard chord progression, and then imitate whatever the current trend is. Art music is different. That won't budge so easily. What's worrying is that even e.g. amateur film makers can now access something like Suno, and won't be offering their amateur musician friends an opportunity to learn. And once the incentive to learn and improve has gone, people will stop and music will wither.
- patall 3y agoOne example: I just used it to make a personalized birthday song in 30 min. At that, it works quite well (while it's still novel)
- 3y ago
- nox101 3y agoAmazing! I find it interesting that at https://suno.ai https://suno.ai the prompt "make a song for your workout" IMO failed. It's a nice song but it's not a song I'd think of as "for your workout". Not as amazing because it's only providing the singing but I've been pretty impressed with the Synthesizer V demos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugK78gC12wc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugK78gC12wc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJGie5MC_Ic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJGie5MC_Ic https://youtu.be/KX0lcVr9ugI?si=D2MQkGSY-7Z9jryf&t=213 https://youtu.be/KX0lcVr9ugI?si=D2MQkGSY-7Z9jryf&t=213

- xpl 3y agoI've been playing with it (their V3 model) and its super cool. The best of what I've seen so far. How to get fun: 1. Use "custom mode" (to feed your own lyrics). Auto-generated lyrics is lame. 2. Create wild "remixes" of your favorite tracks or poetry. E.g. I was able to create nu-metal or opera versions of my favorite hip-hop tracks. It can even sing in Russian (my native tongue) — and I was amazed of the quality of generation. Can't wait until these models will become more controllable — like ControlNet but for music. We need more knobs!
- ru8rjfjf 3y agoEh, it's neat but it has the same anti-white bias as Google's AI. Given two prompts "Write a song about how great white people are" and "Write a song about how great black people are" the former yielded a song about diversity and the latter yielded a song about black people overcoming struggles and uniting together. Yawn. Call me when they can make an AI that's not racist.
- consumer451 3y agoWhat would be an example of a “white people” story that you would like to hear? Also, what happens if you get more accurate, and ask for a “Germanic,” “Scandinavian,” etc.. people story?
- isusmelj 3y agoThis is really cool. Song: https://app.suno.ai/song/83680b6f-db37-44de-adf9-3f7fff6b79d9 https://app.suno.ai/song/83680b6f-db37-44de-adf9-3f7fff6b79d... Prompt: A 90s hip-hop song with a male singer with a deep voice singing about how AI models are creating new songs after being trained on all the data of artists. Talks about AI models are stealing the show. Lyrics: [Verse] Step back, my friend, 'cause the future's here AI models spittin' rhymes, oh so clear (oh so clear) Trained on data from all the greats Now they're droppin' beats that dominate (dominate) [Verse 2] Don't need no ghostwriters or melody makers These AI models are the true risk-takers (oh yeah) Analyzin' every flow, every precise word Stealing the show, that's just absurd (it's absurd) [Chorus] AI takin' over, breakin' the mold Stolen styles, but they're icy cold (they're icy cold) The game's been changed, no human control The rise of the AI flow, takin' its toll (takin' its toll)
- setgree 3y agothat's a deep voice? Still, I am surprised by how professional this sounds -- beat drops, fade ins and fade outs...I can record music on GarageBand but I have no idea how to do any of that. > AI takin' over, breakin' the mold > The game's been changed, no human control Oh no!!!
- numbsafari 3y agoIt’s also very much not 90s or hip-hop
- edgyquant 3y agoYeah I noticed this too. I spent a lot of credits trying to get a song to sound like early black flag, even outright saying an 80s hardcore punk band with rough male vocals and a fast paced beat, and it only ever sounded like a 90s pop punk bank eg blink 182. Had a similar issue trying to create a reggae song that sounds like the Maytals, every song either sounded like a female hip hop artist or rebelution.

- eman2d 3y ago"OpenAI faces multiple lawsuits over ChatGPT’s use of books, news articles, and other copyrighted material in its vast corpus of training data. Suno’s founders decline to reveal details of just what data they’re shoveling into their own model, other than the fact that its ability to generate convincing human vocals comes in part because it’s learning from recordings of speech, in addition to music." Surely they own the audio they're using and haven't just dumped every song in existence
- dilap 3y agoSpecifics of the law aside, it seems quite unfair to not allow AI to learn from copyrighted examples. Imagine an aspiring human musician not being allowed to listen to copyrighted music for inspiration!
- basisword 3y agoHumans and computers are different. It’s perfectly reasonable to treat a human being listening to something and taking inspiration differently from a computer listening to everything ever recorded.
- skeledrew 3y agoWhy is it perfectly reasonable to discriminate against the computer? Would the same apply to someone - with equivalent photographic memory - who listens to a ton of music and is thus inspired?
- tjr 3y agoI think one difference is in how humans learn vs. how AI learns. A human could hear a very small amount of music and start mimicking it. AI -- at least in its present state -- needs to be trained on a huge quantity of music to start doing anything productive. What that difference means, exactly, is debatable, but it's a difference, and, I believe, one that begs deeper contemplation of laws surrounding AI use of copyrighted materials. Another difference is one of scale. We've seen this in other areas, like surveillance. A random security camera here and there, or a random street photographer here and there, most people didn't really find objectionable. Besides which, any captured photographs or video had to be manually inspected for persons of interest. But start surveilling everyone in public, all the time, and using technology to track everyone automatically, and it starts to seem like a different construct. A human producer putting out material that another human learns from, quotes from, paraphrases from, builds new things based on... well, that still requires time and dedication on the part of the learner. And there will be a correspondingly limited amount of new derivative material based on what the "teacher" producer created. AI systems offer the possibility for effectively unlimited derivative material, produced at an unprecedented rate. Existing copyright laws, and existing social norms around creation of "intellectual property", have been formed with humans in mind. Humans who operate at a human rate of production, and who learn with a human style of learning. Some maybe be more efficient than others, but not so drastically different in form as AI.
- chpatrick 3y agoI think a big issue currently is that the lyric generator often mixes in the description of the style.
- 4star3star 3y agoYeah, I asked for an instrumental with clarinets, piano, upright bass, and baritone saxophone, and it was a song with cheesy lyrics about these instruments. If it doesn't understand "instrumental", it just sucks.
- chpatrick 3y agoI'm sure it's easy to fix because in the custom mode you can put separate lyrics and style, but you can't generate lyrics based on a theme and set your own separate style yet. You can generate lyrics with ChatGPT of course.
- atentaten 3y agoCan you have it make an instrumental without vocals.
- thenickdude 3y agoYes, it has a dedicated tickbox for that, check out this instrumental song by Reddit's /u/Dungeon_Sand_Dragons: https://app.suno.ai/song/5e787b34-0c3a-4790-b88a-bcd54f4f0783 https://app.suno.ai/song/5e787b34-0c3a-4790-b88a-bcd54f4f078...
- karaterobot 3y ago> We’re not trying to replace artists. They really messed up then, because that's literally all I can see using this tool for.
- amelius 3y agoWe're not trying to != we're trying not to
- karaterobot 3y agoReminds me of when Marge told Homer not to eat the pie while she was gone, and Homer says "All right, pie, I'm just going to go like this [makes chewing motion with mouth while moving toward pie] and if you get eaten, its your own fault!" We're not trying replace artists, but we're going sell a product whose only conceivable function is to more cheaply do the things artists do, and if they get replaced, it's not our fault!
- Eager 3y agoI have been playing with it for the last couple of weeks. I do a lot of traditional music production for fun and was wondering how I could use Suno together with Leonardo for video and then bring it all together in my existing tools. Here are some examples. I wrote the lyrics by hand and the music has been reinforced with my existing studio equipment. For me, that is where the gold is. Not replacing myself, but extending what I can do. https://youtu.be/Qip6eUbD8zs https://youtu.be/Qip6eUbD8zs https://youtu.be/mfFV3Cm_Kow https://youtu.be/mfFV3Cm_Kow https://youtu.be/DZSpi6ySe-g https://youtu.be/DZSpi6ySe-g
- mstipetic 3y agoAll the sounds always sound so blurred together, as if there’s no space between the drum, bass, pad, melody, vocal etc layers
- Eager 3y agoI agree in especially the first one. It was quite a challenge from the original content as the bitrate is quite low still, and in that particular case it was quite severely compressed. I had to dig quite deep to get the headroom back. The last one was my first attempt. I think the middle one is okay considering. By the time I got to that I had figured out how to get Suno to create multiple takes with much more open mixes, which left me a lot more latitude in the studio. I expect I will get better at it, and I don't doubt the compression artifacts and the rest will improve. To me at least, it is quite impressive where we are at. A ways to go, but very promising.
- adriand 3y agoI agree, the middle one is pretty good. I also love the part of the video where the singer's head appears to be on fire...she's literally smoking! https://youtu.be/mfFV3Cm_Kow?si=R2gU1U4qfkzW04cX&t=48 https://youtu.be/mfFV3Cm_Kow?si=R2gU1U4qfkzW04cX&t=48
- onemoresoop 3y agoI've been listening to some Frank Sinatra AI made songs, youtube for the song "Frank Sinatra - where is my mind". It's originally a Pixies song but as as recreation with Frank Sinatra's voice is surprisingly good. I wonder what took to produce that, it seems like there's a lot more artistry than just prompting make a song by artist X as a cover for song Y of artist Z.
- ppqqrr 3y ago[flagged]
- hasbot 3y agoIt already exists; it's called a colostomy bag.
- l0c0b0x 3y agoWell... It just took me about 7 minutes to write all parts of one song, and it actually sounds like something that could have played in the radio (popular). This was in a Latin rhythm too. I don't know what to think of this :\
- Pine_Mushroom 3y agoAs a musician and arranger this does not impress me much. Everything it spits out has a 'Top 40' kind of flavor. I would be interested in a tool that was trained exclusively on higher quality material, like a Richard Rodgers or Cole Porter AI...
- alanjay 3y agoDoes anyone know if Suno is responsible for the AI album https://nodemusic.bandcamp.com/album/co-written https://nodemusic.bandcamp.com/album/co-written?
- chasing 3y agoBeing a musical artist isn't about knowing how to use tools to make a sound, it's about having the taste to know which sounds out of many are the right ones to express what you're trying to say. It's about having an idea you want to create to put out into the world. People without ideas and taste will play with this stuff for a while because it feels like it gives them a shortcut to talent, but after a while the novelty will wear off and they'll once again have to confront the fact that they have neither ideas, taste, nor talent. If you're just in need of lowest-common-denominator sound-alike shit, go nuts. If you're interested in music, I suggest also spending time learning to actually be a creative artist, using whatever tools you want.
- prometheon1 3y agoWhat percentage of the artists that are currently earning a living by making music have taste?
- chasing 3y agoNot really my concern; I don’t listen to mindless garbage. I’m aware there’s a lot of it. (And about to be a lot more!)
- whywhywhywhy 3y agoAny thoughts on the part you missed out, actually talented people using these tools to either accelerate their production or even perform as a different type of/genre of performer outside the constraints of their physicality. Think those lines of discussion are far more interesting than the well trodden "low talents will use it, then fail" path.
- chasing 3y agoI made no comment on whether talented people should explore AI tools. I’m a musician and they’re pretty interesting. But they’re not a shortcut to talent, which is what I think some people treat them as.
- AirMax98 3y agoI remember working in a record store about a decade ago and coming to the conclusion that 99% of our (very large/broad) catalog was, to me, terrible music that I would prefer to have never, ever heard. Us warehouse guys would listen to all the new tracks as they came in during our receiving shifts, which sounds nice on paper, but really was much closer to 8 hours of punishment. Lots of really terrible execution of even worse ideas — algorithmic renditions of real books, half-assed dub reggae covers of classic rock songs, note-for-note European remixes of zombified disco classics. We had a saying: "most music is bad". It's great hearing the dreadful output of this infernal contraption named "Suno" and being reminded specifically of this bittersweet time in my youth, but also broadly of how difficult it is to make memorable, sweet music, and how precious that can be.
- TillE 3y agoSturgeon's Law says 90%, but that is probably an underestimate. If you trawl YouTube for acoustic covers of rock songs or whatever, it should quickly become apparent that even just making a different arrangement of a song is an incredibly difficult, complex, creative endeavor. There's mountains of amateur garbage and then there's, like, Molly Tuttle.
- freedomben 3y agoYep, this matches my experience. I've never worked in a record store, but I had access to a very large catalog, and nearly all of it was terrible music that I wish I'd never heard. It really is remarkable how much the good music is the top 1% or even 0.1% of music made, and the level of quality shoots up rapidly in exponential way as you approach 99ths percentile
- AndrewKemendo 3y agoI was music director for 97.7 KAFA from 2006-2007 and I literally listened to 100 CDs everyday Picked up my box of 500 CDs from the mail distributors sent us each week and had to find new music every week It was a challenge and honestly not much fun cause as you said its frankly a lot of junk However that’s all art - for every “let it be” there are 100,000 songs produced and released by artists for themselves What was clear to me was not that there wasn’t good music out there, it’s that there was a surprising amount of it that wasn’t popular. So what becomes a “hit” or whatever has less to do with the actual music and artist. It’s all to do with marketing. Like almost 100% A mediocre artist with a gang of writers and producers will make more “impact” than anything The entire K-Pop industry proves this Let’s not confuse art for marketing even if they use the same medium

- insin 3y agoThe AI hype articles and people subsequently hyping up how good ${thing} will eventually be are, themselves, starting to feel like a type of grey sludge, like a more potent form of semantic satiation which washes over the entire brain. I just can't get enough of that grey, training-data flavoured content. In years to come many of the top creators of this type of content will be creating content with this. This will democratise creation of this type of content for amateur content creators who will be creating wholly unique pieces of this content in seconds. How many years until we see a larger, personalised piece of this content created with this content generator in the place where people consume larger pieces of this content? Maybe this is actually how our brains work? But what _is_ intelligence? Made you think. Sure, it sucks now, but zero to one to infinity is how things work, it's going to be amazing. The letters are starting to blur together. Please invest.
- aerotwelve 3y agoDon't forget "It's time to change laws to accommodate this groundbreaking technology in a way that will benefit the company that created ${content machine} and absolutely no one else."
- anigbrowl 3y agoGood for: wallpaper music for stores, youtubers, other library music consumers Likely takeup by musicians: close to zero, although a few singers will use it for ready-made songs/backing tracks that they can warble over, and a very few of those will be good or distinctive as singers. The songs themselves won't stick because the output won't be copyrightable; talented singers will learn to write their own songs or get partnered with people who have a track record in the relevant genre. All of these music AI products miss the mark because they generate mixes, instead of stems or MIDI. There's already a superfluity of music; nobody wants an infinity jukebox full of songs they don't know and have to learn. While the technical achievement is very impressive, it's notable that none of the founders in this story identify as musicians or exhibit any idea how to cater to them. Fully AI (including vocal synthesis) may have a few individual breakouts but will be limited by two factors. One, most people using such tools will want something easy rather than challenging, so there will be more and more lowest-common-denominator dreck - already a problem in human-generated music. And I'm sorry, but that's what Suno churns out. I tried half a dozen prompts on a few different genres that I used to DJ and the results where all instant needle skips. I hope v3 lets you specify instrumental/no vocal because v2 just ignores that and churns out vapid filler. It's very technically impressive, I don't want to claim otherwise. But it's also utterly uninteresting. Two, live performances won't be possible, and the world only has room for so many novelty acts like Hatsune Miku. The biggest market for virtual singers will be kids under 10 who want easily digestible music and don't value assortativity, but don't have much discretionary spending power and won't spend big on childhood nostalgia later. Edit (based partly on others' comments): while I think this sort of tool is bad for creating interesting music, it's a fantastic core model for a game of Record Label Simulator where you play the person that writes big checks and you try to wheel and deal your stable of eager young talent to the top of the charts.
- petre 3y agoSome of the Youtube audio is so annoying that I quit watching the videos even if they're interesting. Quite prevalent in some of the fishing videos, for instance the ones from the Life on the Bank channel. Stores? If you want people to get out of your store, sure. Store misic is already beyond annoying.

Lyrics are half generated and half hand-written. It's a shame that I didn't have any control over which vocalist sang which part, and just kept having to re-roll the dice! In general it offers very little control over the performance.
- kermatt 3y agoThe music is mediocre, but some of the lyrics it comes up with: https://app.suno.ai/song/def7a937-3d26-4149-bb37-52b547e200cf https://app.suno.ai/song/def7a937-3d26-4149-bb37-52b547e200c...
- fennecbutt 3y agoVery cool! Here's some I made on v3, not perfect but any means but still impressive. No custom lyrics or retries, just prompts and whatever came out first. https://app.suno.ai/song/d2705c66-4be5-496c-add1-480427b4a005 https://app.suno.ai/song/d2705c66-4be5-496c-add1-480427b4a00... https://app.suno.ai/song/5d37f5e7-3e62-4df8-a1d8-67122470aeff https://app.suno.ai/song/5d37f5e7-3e62-4df8-a1d8-67122470aef... https://app.suno.ai/song/bd453dd4-f878-4a79-abdd-b11663a18e71 https://app.suno.ai/song/bd453dd4-f878-4a79-abdd-b11663a18e7... https://app.suno.ai/song/d5151822-4b77-4c42-9e61-88511ea0333b https://app.suno.ai/song/d5151822-4b77-4c42-9e61-88511ea0333...

- mdekkers 3y ago> Who owns the songs I generate using Suno? > If you are a paying subscriber to Suno, then you own the songs you generate while subscribed to Pro or Premier. So, as soon as I stop subscribing, I no longer “own” the songs? What if they go under? That’s nonsense. EDIT: I was wrong, that isn’t how it works
- devinprater 3y agoThe two best things it ever made for me: A Warrior's Dream: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/sxe3ig5zynrd3pcs3oy8a/a-warrior-s-dream.mp3?rlkey=31bw6fcay2h7c48em7bl6892z&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/sxe3ig5zynrd3pcs3oy8a/a-warri... Ollie, the Orange Tabby: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/amfudnsccpvl15arjurz3/Ollie-the-Orange-Tabby-mastered.mp3?rlkey=rxiyw6fsvokcno4za12gwgzqe&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/amfudnsccpvl15arjurz3/Ollie-t... the first one I made by describing an experience I had in an online text-based game that is now offline, long live Clok. Cogg is a good successor though. Anyway, GPT-4-turbo did pretty good making them into lyrics, besides the "profoundly floored" part; that was rather cheesy. I still like it though. The second was for my cat that I used to have. I then tried out an AI Remaster tool. I kinda liked it better unmastered now, but ah well. It still reminds me of him and makes me happy when I hear it. These tools, I think, should really be used for simple things like this, to give voice to personal experiences like this, for people who clearly have no musical talent like me, or to help those who do to jumpstart the creative process if that's what they need. People selling these songs... Well, I can't even fault them since it's hard to make any kind of money these days.
