IA will never replace humans but can give them some nice hints. Even in song creation... Far away from real artists production, this is quite impressive anyway. I let you explore more... (created on https://suno.com/, lyrics and music design by human, music creation and voices by IA)

Here is how to use pop music in your video, without robbing a bank to pay for a license When crafting any video, choosing the right music is absolutely crucial. It often sets the pace, evokes emotions, and can build or destroy the entire story. But what if you feel like your story deserves some sprinkles in the form of mainstream bangers like Drake, Justin Bieber, or Dua Lipa? The solution is called Lickd (yes, the name is real 😁), where you can get licenses for $15 a month for a ton of popular music in one place. 🎶 And noup this is not a sponsored post, just a genuine tip 😊.

If you missed the chat with Joshua Christie , wow it was something. I’m glad their are people not afraid to call out the advertising and sync industries on some of their predatory practices.

It looks like ElevenLabs (TwiXter: @elevenlabsio) is about to release a music generator. Here is the first of three posts on X showcasing some of its capabilities: https://lnkd.in/ekFpvjG6 . I find it fascinating that until recently music generation appeared to be a stepchild in the family of ML models. Within two months this has fundamentally changed. #text2music #text2audio

well... hmmm. I am not even sure what i think about this. what if it makes really deep songs? what happens when everyone has lost shared music because now you can have a new tracklist based on how you want to feel or be motivated for the day? when love songs are common. when you can listen to an idealized version of your voice singing to you. this is gonna be so interesting. no doubt singing emails are coming. no more ads on the radio, or at least, not as noticable, it could just be a song, with a problem and a solution :D maybe they could inject preference for beat structure into models and then sell those as the new instrument plugins. anyways, this is too cool. https://lnkd.in/giz_qvQA
