Reports Suggest OpenAI Working on Generative AI Music Tool
Could the company behind ChatGPT soon be competing with Suno and Udio?
Tech and finance outlet The Information is reporting that OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT and the Sora AI video creation tool, is on the verge of entering the generative AI music space.
The details:
It’s unclear if OpenAI plans to release a tool that can create an entire song from a text prompt, à la Suno and Udio.
However, The Information references sources that say OpenAI’s tool could be used to add a soundtrack to a video, or instrumental accompaniment to a vocal track.
OpenAI has reportedly been working with students at the Juilliard School of Music, who are said to be annotating music scores to create training data.
There are no details around the release of the tool.
History:
OpenAI has form in the music space.
It’s partnered with Spotify on the streaming platform’s AI ‘DJ’ feature, and recently announced a full ChatGPT/Spotify integration for people to discover music.
OpenAI also developed two GenAI music models a few years back: 2019’s MuseNet and 2020’s Jukebox.
