Sure, some desperate lonely people have very close relationships with ie pillows. What OP says will most probably be true though - when there is ocean of cheap/free perfect AI art, it will be worthless. What will be worthy is imperfect human-created art. We already went through this decades ago with expensive hand made vs cheap machine made stuff, this is just another iteration. I am not saying it will be great to be…

Interesting that it messes up "fitness" in all versions.

I agree. "sublicense" is also pronounced wrong or in a dialect I am not familiar with.

In the olden days we would rewrite the input text to a voice synth to pre-correct the incorrect pronunciations.

Maybe try sub-lye-sense Or similar.

If this was an actual person performing, I would have smiled all the way to the end. Since this is AI-generated, I feel no emotion towards this, and just listened for a few seconds. It's technically interesting.

What if you didn't know either way? Would you refuse to enjoy a song, until you were absolutely sure it was performed by a human?

I think we kind of already have the answer to this one. Commercial music that use computers to enhance the song or singer is already prevalent. Even straight AI assisted track generation probably already happens. People don't use to mind it for as long as they don't know. Once they do, many still don't care but some feel betrayed and think honesty and humanity is part of the art. I haven't heard of a single person who refuse to enjoy songs they don't know how they were produced, though, and I strongly doubt the parent would too.

I'd be curious to hear your reasoning behind this? Why does this being computer generated ruin it for you? Auto-tune has been around since 1997 so it's not like computers have not been a big part of a lot of music we hear every day.

Because the cause of a person singing is their mental states (desire, emotion, intention, etc.) and the cause of this generation of audio is that the words are associated with some backcatalogue of previous music. Listening to songs, as speaking with people, is in large part about enjoying the causes of the song rather than the mere variations in pitch. Beethoven's 5th even, purely instrumental, is enjoyable because…

Meanwhile, Hatsune Miku remains popular. There are even concerts.

Suno is great and I already shared my positive thought on its potential back in v2. I have always believed that the essence of digital music is "organized numbers". I think what needs to be thought about is how to use AI in this process. If you look at the results (numbers) generated, then we are indeed very close. But there is another future I believe: I hope AI can compose music with me, like copilot. This is why I keep working on

and the destination is:

Although my progress on AI is slow atm, I found that the copilot in VS code can already help me in live coding performances several times:

Also want to hear your feedback.

At the current rate of progress maybe it'll be months. I did a song for my company just to have fun around an event and the quality of the song was astounding, better than this one I think also using v3. I didn't even write the lyrics, I just described what I want in the prompt. Also I used one of poems I wrote as a teenager (not a lot of them) to create a song... the AI would notice the emphasis in the feelings of t…

It reminds me of CGI in the 90's. Everyone was so astounded over the quality of jurassic park and toy story, the rate of improvements was mindboggling. Predictions were made that in a few years, actors and movie studios would be obsolete. But in the meantime, audiences started to notice artifacts that were not apparent to the untrained eye - CGI was actually ugly! And here we are 30 years later - actors are still on…

I had a similar reaction. We can still detect AI-generated images after years of progress; I think it's hasty to say they'll be indistinguishable any time soon.

I have to say, I completely lost it at the whisper '(The "Software")' (0:18)... give this tech another year or two and it will be better quality than your average radio song.

Here's my attempt at humor, there is something about his short sentences and speech delivery that makes them very suitable for ballads: https://suno.com/song/9f731225-8844-44f1-9325-4078cf53c729

Pretty much all mainstream songs are of the same tempo (or slight variations), the same beat, the same scale, the same accents etc. I'm not surprised at all it can be regurgitated by an generative model. What I would like to see is what happens if you ask it to do in 5/8, 5/4 or any of the 7/* variants and see how that goes (I have no idea, might actually work). There are some examples in common music but not a lot e…

Almost none of what you said is true. Same scale? Tempo? Same beat? You think artists are just all using the same instrumental track? And yes it can do odd time signatures. It can do all sorts of genres like art pop, cinematic scores, ambient, math rock, avant garde, baroque, etc.

There's a surprising number of pop songs that use the same or close to the same chord progression.
