Google launches MusicLM: an AI tool to turn text descriptions into music

Google has announced the launch of a new experimental AI tool called MusicLM, which can turn text descriptions into music. The tool was first announced in January and has now been made available for users to try out in AI Test Kitchen on the web, Android or iOS.

The service works by allowing users to type in a prompt such as “soulful jazz for a dinner party”, and MusicLM will create two versions of the song. Users can listen to both and give a trophy to the track they prefer, which will help improve the model.

According to Google, they have been working with musicians like Dan Deacon and hosting workshops to see how this technology can empower the creative process. The company believes that MusicLM has the potential to revolutionize the way music is created and produced.

Google's MusicLM is just one example of how AI is being used to create music. Companies such as Amper Music and Jukedeck are already using AI to create music for businesses and content creators.

As AI technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see even more innovative ways in which it will be used to create and enhance music.
