Dream Track is initially being rolled out to a limited set of creators to build 30-second AI-generated soundtracks in the style of various artists. The Music AI tools, which are being developed in collaboration with a group of artists, songwriters, and producers, will be rolled out later this year. They will allow users to create music in a specified instrument, build a choir or ensemble from chords on a MIDI keyboard, and build backing and instrumental tracks for a vocal line.
Key takeaways:
- Google DeepMind has announced a new music generation model called Lyria, which will work in conjunction with YouTube and two new toolsets, Dream Track and Music AI tools.
- Dream Track allows creators to build 30-second AI-generated soundtracks in the style of various artists, intended for use with YouTube Shorts.
- The Music AI tools, set to be released later this year, will assist in creating music based on humming a tune, building a choir from chords on a MIDI keyboard, and creating backing tracks for a vocal line.
- These developments come at a time when AI's role in the creative arts is a controversial topic, with questions arising about whether AI creation will become more common in the future.
