TIL: When singing a license, ALL CAPS means chorus.

Absolutely amazing!
donbrae 3y ago
Impressive! Quite a nice song, too.
JacksonWaschura 3y ago
Wow! I hadn't kept up with music generation for the past few years. It's come a long way! Long-term coherence, reasonable-ish melody, all on top of very unmusical text. Very impressive.
xedrac 3y ago
The song really picks up when you get to the all CAPS section.
tivert 3y ago
Twitter is stupid now, so I can only see the linked post. But are there instructions to replicate this, and has anyone done so? Just kind of skeptical of videos of demos in general. If this is legit, the Spotify spam is going to become atrocious and probably unmanageable.

  Yeah you can generate any type of song with really good results on suno.ai
- codingdave 3y ago
  Yeah, it works, and doesn't need any technical instructions. Just go make a song on suno.ai. I had done a folk song version of my resume. It wasn't going to become a hit or anything, so I don't see this replacing any real musicians, but it absolutely worked to create a passable performance as a song.
- cruano 3y ago
  The Spotify spam _is_ already atrocious and unmanageable. If anything, it might get a little bit more creative instead of people just publishing the same samples from Splice everywhere.

The delivery of "(the 'software')" at 0:21 had me chuckling.
- leokennis 3y ago
  I was very impressed by the mini bridge and then sudden addition of harmony between the license and the ALL CAPS statement part. Is that all AI deciding that? This made it a true song in my opinion.

n4r9 3y ago
Some strange and funny vocal aberrations here: * sublicence - "sublissence" * fitness - "fisted" * infringement - "infring-ment" * liable - "liar-ful" It's also obviously not a pure human voice recording as the pitch transitions sound heavily auto-tuned or electrified (think Cher's "Believe"). I anticipate people becoming experts in detecting AI-generated vocalists in much the same way that we can currently detect AI-generated images due to abnormalities especially in details like ears or fingers.
- haolez 3y ago
  And I also expect that, very soon, we won't be able to tell them apart anymore (like those wine experts that fail to detect the good wines if blindfolded).
  - Etheryte 3y ago
    That fail to detect even whether they're having white wine or red wine.*
    - Starman_Jones 3y ago
      This myth is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the experiment conducted. The conclusion of the experiment was that the vocabulary used to describe wine is subjective, and that the chosen descriptors are most heavily influenced by the color of wine, the perceived cost of the wine, and the taster's opinion of whether it was a good wine or not. I've participated in a blind wine tasting, and it was trivially easy for even complete amateurs to guess the right color of wine 100% of the time.
    - arketyp 3y ago
      I've heard this, and I would have been inclined to believe it. But then I watched the documentary Somm about the journey of a couple of friends reaching for the highest rankings of sommeliers. They could identify grapes, regions and year with striking accuracy. I just don't see how you could do that and then not be able to tell white and red wine apart.

  - thenickdude 3y ago
    My approach to generating a music video was to generate scenes using DALL-E 3, and then animate those using Stable Video Diffusion (SVD). SVD doesn't have well-controllable motion and is utterly blown out of the water by Sora, but it's what we have right now. Here's the resulting vid, "a death metal song about a macro photographer": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNVRQ1Zg-a0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNVRQ1Zg-a0 If you only want a video file from Suno to share with the default static lyrics screen on it, hit Download Video from the three-dots menu.

  In the great web tradition of harvesting the vast body of other people's work in the large[1] and shoving it through huge amounts of computation to wring out a nickel's worth of value that will eventually manifest in some good-paying SWE jobs, a rich executive class, and a whole lot of shareholder value and inevitably mutate in another goddamn ad-serving platform. [1] Ha, the poor millions of dumb minions who put their work on the web thinking it might be fun for others or garner themselves a small following, they didn't check the terms of the EULA!
  - commandlinefan 3y ago
    I wonder if this won't drive a resurgence of demand for live performances - as recording becomes more and more artificial, live performance will mean more. (Or maybe, as a live performer, I'm just wishful thinking here...)
  - paulddraper 3y ago
    Generally speaking, people create internet content so that it is shared. All of the creators and subjects of meme formats... Should they receive royalty every time you post some inane mashup?
    - titzer 3y ago
      This is not that. We're not talking about some inane mashup, but a wholesale digestion of every creative thing any person ever did by a monster computer cluster whose scale dwarfs imagination, which then promptly uses it to maximize "engagement" to gather eyeballs to feed them advertising. It's profoundly messed up.

It's a satire generator. Take any text you want to make fun of, turn it into music. I'm not sure whether I've just run out of credit, or Suno actually knows what the political sensitivities of the text might be, but I can't generate a second amendment song.

    Lol, nice! When they allowed longer text inputs, and for faster rapping, I can really see this kinda thing taking off with L1s and med students. Like the Animaniacs song about the state capitols. Or like a Homeric epic that is meant for remembering and singing. The method of loci may have a new competitor as a way to remember things here.
    - billh 3y ago
      One of the things that came to mind when I was listening to the ToS song it generated was a video I had watched years ago on the very dry topic of Rule 803 - Hearsay Exceptions but it was put to a catchy tune and made it very memorable and easier to digest.

Is there any information how such songs are made? It probably is way more complicated to get a decent result than one might expect.

  Maybe, but I think there is something innately funny about making computers say silly things. As a small child it was peak comedy to me making a Macintosh say “fart” and it’s still funny to me when a computer sings the MIT license.
  - thenickdude 3y ago
    On that theme, I asked Suno to sing a rap but "remove all the vowels", and it's hilarious how well it attempts to sing the silly result: https://app.suno.ai/song/30f8223e-0d0b-4cac-8b3f-5d8f0f743e26 https://app.suno.ai/song/30f8223e-0d0b-4cac-8b3f-5d8f0f743e2... The lyrics generator is some version of GPT so you can give it natural language instructions like this.
ein0p 3y ago
My mind hasn’t been this blown by AI since GPT4. You owe it to yourself to check out Suno.ai. As a non-pro musician I’m excited by this. Some version of this could become a _starting point_ for me, rather than an unreachable end goal. I can see how pros would be horrified by this, too. For quite a few people some future version of this could be an adequate replacement for a music subscription, but of course not for a show.
- MarcelOlsz 3y ago
  I was thinking it would impact places like bars and streams and tv the most rather than actual consumers, or wherever licensing is concerned. I don't believe people would listen to AI generated music for the same reason AI isn't impacting fine art. People aren't going to hang AI paintings in their houses or listen to AI music.
  - IanCal 3y ago
    > I don't believe people would listen to AI generated music Counter-point, we've been listening to a rock song about the moon given the words from one of my kids books all morning. People will 100% listen to (edit - I never finished the sentence) things that sound fun. It might not bring me to tears or stop me in my tracks but lots of things are just fun. > People aren't going to hang AI paintings in their houses People will absolutely do this. If AI systems can make nice pictures people will hang them in their houses. And they can make nice pictures.

    People are buying art in IKEA, of course they'll hang an AI painting as well.
  - ein0p 3y ago
    Why not? Have you seen the top 10? It couldn’t be any worse than what it is now. People who reach the top 10 are rarely there for the “art”. A lot of them don’t even write their own songs or music.

sircastor 3y ago
Reminds me of Regina Spektor's style. And some of the generated phenomes actually just sound like stylistic auto-tuning. I kind of like it. I'm sure many have already observed this, but I think the thing that most artists fear from AI is not that AI will be able to produce works on parr or superior to human works, but that most people won't care enough to value the difference.

Suno.ai and the underlaying technologies are really quite amazing. I've done a few things like: * Put a poem my late mother wrote to music for her memorial * <asian-language> versions of 80's new wave songs and they came out so lovely compared to what I'd be capable of as a musician, but puts me in the role of a "producer" of sorts tuning the sound and vibe. Really well worth the money.
layman51 3y ago
This is scratching an rare itch for me because I am a heavy subvocalizer when I read just about anything, and when I have a song stuck in my head, I end up wondering what it would sound like if someone sang the words I’m reading to the tune of the song.

  for college i would convert my physical textbooks to wordfile text, then convert the wordfile text to computer voice mp3s and use those to play in the background to help me studying. break up chapters or sections of the college textbook into suno songs instead - itd be maad interesting how much better that wouldve helped my studies. monotone computer voices of 10+ years ago will put you to sleep.

I remember when Solaria came out there were a ton of people making emotional spiritual music with it. It felt so odd, robot voices singing to God and about the wonder of experiencing life. Sounded pretty though. Soon we will have 'preacher's in a box' that will sing to lift you up, mentor you, guide you through life. Most will even be 'non-religious' but will basically become your religion, your guide through life.

Ha. Voice synthesizers and TTS systems (and NLP in general - dead electronics imitating this very intimately human thing, speech and language) always fascinated me, so far that this was a significant reason for me to study CS and computational linguistics. This is literally some of the impossible sci-fi tech I dreamt of as an undergrad. Crazy. I'm still a bit in disbelief how fast things currently move on this front. Interestingly, suno.ai is also able to imitate the very robotic and staccato-like intonation of Vocaloids: https://app.suno.ai/song/f43e9c46-92d3-4171-bdd9-026213d67726/ https://app.suno.ai/song/f43e9c46-92d3-4171-bdd9-026213d6772... - everything comes around. :)

muxator 3y ago
I suppose the focus was on voice synthesis here. I won't add anything about it since other commenters have already said significant things about this wonderful feat. Musically, however, I can't help but notice that these models are still very far from being able to generate something interesting: from harmony, to tempo, to musical structure, to dynamics, everything is muddled and without structure. I guess there is still very much to work on, and I am not sure that purely generative models can attain higher levels. Maybe a mixed rule-based and generative approach would do? The progress is really fast in this field, I really do not know.
- notjulianjaynes 3y ago
  To my knowledge, the model being used for this is "chirp" which is 'based on' bark[1], an AI text to speech model. The github page for bark links to a page about chirp, which returns a 404 page for me [2]. My guess is that the model used for suno.ai's song generator isn't too much different than the text to speech model. I also have a hunch is that it was more like a coincidence than intentional that the bark model was capable of producing music, and that was spun off into this product. Unfortunately, there seems to still be issues with bark when generating long (like book length) spoken audio. Which is too bad, as someone who's worked jobs that require lots of driving, it would be awesome to be able to have any text read to me in a natural sounding voice.

To get chorus right I’m not sure if LLM type tech can accurately repeat the chorus it has made up before. Many songs have very repeated chorus. An example is U2s One. “Is it getting better..” and then another chorus “did I disappoint you..” Current generated songs are made like sentences where you hear entire song without much structure
uyzstvqs 3y ago
Suno is pretty cool. If I had to guess this uses Suno's Bark and Facebook's MusicGen? The output of the latter is used as conditional layers for the prior similar to ControlNet? Anyway, what will be interesting is when this can be done locally on consumer hardware with open-source AI, a nice UI and Vulkan/DirectML GPU inference.

  Here I was thinking "game with music that talks about your game". Think something like skyrim where you have nords singing ballads based on what you've done, and what your character is named (built with an llm generating lyrics from a json config the game spits out, which is in turn fed into this). Your version unfortunately sounds much more plausible and profitable.

There is a throve of "X singing Y" (like "Beatles singing Billie Jean") clips on YouTube right now. Most of them are boring, but some are funny and entertaining. RN it requires a lot of manual work to generate, although some models and a lot of datasets are already available on Huggingface. Suno, or its next clone, will dramatically close that technological gap; no army of lawyers could stop it. I would brace for impact into a short interim period of dead talent revival. Then, newly synthesized, superhuman artists will emerge.

Some strange and funny vocal aberrations here: * sublicence - "sublissence" * fitness - "fisted" * infringement - "infring-ment" * liable - "liar-ful" It's also obviously not a pure human voice recording as the pitch transitions sound heavily auto-tuned or electrified (think Cher's "Believe"). I anticipate people becoming experts in detecting AI-generated vocalists in much the same way that we can currently detect AI-generated images due to abnormalities especially in details like ears or fingers.

haolez 3y ago
And I also expect that, very soon, we won't be able to tell them apart anymore (like those wine experts that fail to detect the good wines if blindfolded).
- Etheryte 3y ago
  That fail to detect even whether they're having white wine or red wine.*
  - Starman_Jones 3y ago
    This myth is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the experiment conducted. The conclusion of the experiment was that the vocabulary used to describe wine is subjective, and that the chosen descriptors are most heavily influenced by the color of wine, the perceived cost of the wine, and the taster's opinion of whether it was a good wine or not. I've participated in a blind wine tasting, and it was trivially easy for even complete amateurs to guess the right color of wine 100% of the time.
  - arketyp 3y ago
    I've heard this, and I would have been inclined to believe it. But then I watched the documentary Somm about the journey of a couple of friends reaching for the highest rankings of sommeliers. They could identify grapes, regions and year with striking accuracy. I just don't see how you could do that and then not be able to tell white and red wine apart.

My mind hasn’t been this blown by AI since GPT4. You owe it to yourself to check out Suno.ai. As a non-pro musician I’m excited by this. Some version of this could become a _starting point_ for me, rather than an unreachable end goal. I can see how pros would be horrified by this, too. For quite a few people some future version of this could be an adequate replacement for a music subscription, but of course not for a show.

I was thinking it would impact places like bars and streams and tv the most rather than actual consumers, or wherever licensing is concerned.

It might not bring me to tears or stop me in my tracks but lots of things are just fun. > People aren't going to hang AI paintings in their houses People will absolutely do this.

Reminds me of Regina Spektor's style. And some of the generated phenomes actually just sound like stylistic auto-tuning. I kind of like it.

I remember when Solaria came out there were a ton of people making emotional spiritual music with it. It felt so odd, robot voices singing to God and about the wonder of experiencing life. Sounded pretty though. Soon we will have 'preacher's in a box' that will sing to lift you up, mentor you, guide you through life. Most will even be 'non-religious' but will basically become your religion, your guide through life.

Ha. Voice synthesizers and TTS systems (and NLP in general - dead electronics imitating this very intimately human thing, speech and language) always fascinated me, so far that this was a significant reason for me to study CS and computational linguistics. This is literally some of the impossible sci-fi tech I dreamt of as an undergrad. Crazy. I'm still a bit in disbelief how fast things currently move on this front. Interestingly, suno.ai is also able to imitate the very robotic and staccato-like intonation of Vocaloids: https://app.suno.ai/song/f43e9c46-92d3-4171-bdd9-026213d67726/ https://app.suno.ai/song/f43e9c46-92d3-4171-bdd9-026213d6772... - everything comes around. :)

That's shockingly good. It reminds me of a mix between Kaibutsu by YOASOBI and The Fox's Wedding by MASA. (Warning: both links are very anime. Nothing too bad) Kaibutsu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5M4lbEpn6c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5M4lbEpn6c The Fox's Wedding: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khNi_6PnvaE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khNi_6PnvaE

  It reminded me of Bad Apple - I'm not really familiar with all of this weird, nerdy Japanese culture, but I agree it feels very enjoyable to listen to what Suno created here.

most impressive ive heard on suno was a live performance. all the live performance cliches including the crowd singing along acapella. it was unfuckingbelievable - and at the same time i can see how that can get burned out real quick by others replicating same idea over and over.

In a similar vein, LessWrong released an entire AI-generated album with lyrics adapted from significant posts made there over the years: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/YMo5PuXnZDwRjhHhE/lesswrong-s-first-album-i-have-been-a-good-bing https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/YMo5PuXnZDwRjhHhE/lesswrong-...

I suppose the focus was on voice synthesis here. I won't add anything about it since other commenters have already said significant things about this wonderful feat. Musically, however, I can't help but notice that these models are still very far from being able to generate something interesting: from harmony, to tempo, to musical structure, to dynamics, everything is muddled and without structure. I guess there is still very much to work on, and I am not sure that purely generative models can attain higher levels. Maybe a mixed rule-based and generative approach would do? The progress is really fast in this field, I really do not know.

notjulianjaynes 3y ago
To my knowledge, the model being used for this is "chirp" which is 'based on' bark[1], an AI text to speech model. The github page for bark links to a page about chirp, which returns a 404 page for me [2]. My guess is that the model used for suno.ai's song generator isn't too much different than the text to speech model. I also have a hunch is that it was more like a coincidence than intentional that the bark model was capable of producing music, and that was spun off into this product. Unfortunately, there seems to still be issues with bark when generating long (like book length) spoken audio. Which is too bad, as someone who's worked jobs that require lots of driving, it would be awesome to be able to have any text read to me in a natural sounding voice.

I think historically every time someone says that the solution to an ai problem is more structure, the truth turns out to be an issue mostly of data and scale
- muxator 3y ago
  That's probably true. Maybe there is a point to trade computational/energetic efficiency for attainability of a result. Let's see how this unfolds.

This is so much better than stable.audio released yesterday!? I've dabbled in music production and this is just unbelievable. Both amazing and a bit sad because this is already so much better than would i would have anticipated. First illustrators, copywriters, then VFX guys, and now music. We're going to loose so many jobs in the creative sector right?

Suno.AI is very fun. I find that asking ChatGPT to create lyrics and then feeding it gives some great results, although half the generations tend to have a bit too much static, so you have to keep generating.

To get chorus right I’m not sure if LLM type tech can accurately repeat the chorus it has made up before. Many songs have very repeated chorus. An example is U2s One. “Is it getting better..” and then another chorus “did I disappoint you..” Current generated songs are made like sentences where you hear entire song without much structure

uyzstvqs 3y ago

Suno is pretty cool. If I had to guess this uses Suno's Bark and Facebook's MusicGen? The output of the latter is used as conditional layers for the prior similar to ControlNet? Anyway, what will be interesting is when this can be done locally on consumer hardware with open-source AI, a nice UI and Vulkan/DirectML GPU inference.

You see funny little clips, I see more annoying customized ads, which play different lyrics for different people.

Here I was thinking "game with music that talks about your game". Think something like skyrim where you have nords singing ballads based on what you've done, and what your character is named (built with an llm generating lyrics from a json config the game spits out, which is in turn fed into this). Your version unfortunately sounds much more plausible and profitable.

Had Claude Sonnet write the bones of this song about an AI convincing you it's got your back. Edited for segmentation in Suno, and it turned out pretty well, though it didn't quite hit the style I was looking for. https://app.suno.ai/song/4f96f485-8d84-4df0-9a9c-941984137cc4 https://app.suno.ai/song/4f96f485-8d84-4df0-9a9c-941984137cc...

There is a throve of "X singing Y" (like "Beatles singing Billie Jean") clips on YouTube right now. Most of them are boring, but some are funny and entertaining. RN it requires a lot of manual work to generate, although some models and a lot of datasets are already available on Huggingface. Suno, or its next clone, will dramatically close that technological gap; no army of lawyers could stop it. I would brace for impact into a short interim period of dead talent revival. Then, newly synthesized, superhuman artists will emerge.
