AI-Music Arms Race: Meet Udio, the Other ChatGPT for Music

Geek_King , 1 month ago

I think you can provide lyrics yourself, can udio generate lyrics on its own? I listened to some of the staff pick songs, and they were pretty good. I'm not musically inclined, and I have zero skill in coming up with lyrics, but stuff like this and Midjourney let me be creative in ways I don't have natural talent in.

I bet Udio is going to loathed by musicians even harder then artists hate Midjourney.

I feel exactly the same way. I can now be creative in ways I couldn't before. Sometimes I'll use my own lyrics, sometimes I'll use ChatGPT to write lyrics and I'll edit. It's really fun to play with the same lyrics in different genres too.

Oh, cool, I hadn't heard of these.

takes a look

These are actually pretty impressive.

I mean, I recall looking at last efforts at computer-generated music, but this looks remarkably general purpose. They've got meaningful lyrics, vocals, and instruments.

I thought so too. It's really fun to mess around with as someone who isn't very musically inclined. I did a quick search on Lemmy and was surprised to see neither has really been posted about.

Hahaha, one of those on the top weekly tracks has the thing singing "lorem ipsum":

I was already giggling at one that had lyrics about Dune.

Suno is a bit more active (just because it's been around longer) and there are some hilarious songs there too. I Glued My Balls to My Butthole is one of my favorites.

Thanks for posting, don't mind the downvotes from the luddites :D

No worries, I just wanted to share a couple cool AI tools. Figured this sub was as good as any to post about Suno and Udio in.
