Google has created an AI bot that can create music

It's not at all odd that AI would venture into music given how gradually it has permeated every aspect of our digital life, from essay writing to discussions with therapists to the creation of unique art. It also comes as no surprise that tech juggernaut Google would arrive first. Users would be able to put in increasingly detailed cues mentioning genres and styles or even make compositions based on a hummed or whistled melody, according to sources, and the AI bot would then employ both text and sound prompts to produce "original" music. The upcoming software is internally referred to as MusicLM. The details were disclosed in a study published on January 26 that referred to MusicLM as a "model creating high-fidelity music from text descriptions" that "generates music at 24 kHz that remains consistent over several minutes." A collection of sounds, other AI prompts derived from sources like art archives, and additional sequences of timed text prompts all contribute to the construction of songs. A preliminary release of the MusicCaps dataset, which has 5,500 music-text pairs, has already been shared to Google's Github account with examples of the AI-generated compositions. The introduction of such a platform will unavoidably lead to more discussions about the role of artificial intelligence in copyright and intellectual property theft. This discussion will be sparked by the large number of artists and art repositories that have not granted permission for the use of their works in the development of AI bots like these. Further advances in AI also present distinct concerns for the people who create the technology, as exploited workers bear the burden of data mining and moderation. As of right now, Google AI music producer won't be available anytime soon due to persistent issues with cultural programming biases, bugs, and worries about plagiarism that need to be addressed before launch, according to the company.
