Over 1,000 Songs with Human-MimImicking AI Vocals have been released by Tencent Music in China.

MBW’s Stat Of The Week is a series in which we highlight a single data point that deserves the attention of the global music industry. Stat Of the Week is supported by Cing Music Group, a technology-driven record label, distribution, and rights management company.

The use of artificial intelligence-created music just moved up a gear.

We’re not talking about AI in mere instrumental music production, but the use of machine learning to actually mimic and even recreate human vocals – rendering the need for a real singer obsolete.

MBW first explored this topic last March, in which we analyzed the long-term implications of HYBE’s investment into (and subsequent acquisition of) Korea-based Artificial Intelligence company Supertone – which claims that its AI tech can create “a hyper-realistic and expressive voice [not] distinguishable from real humans”.

Now, over in China, things have reached the next level: Tencent Music Entertainment (TME) says that it has created and released over 1,000 tracks containing vocals created by AI tech that mimics the human voice.

And get this: one of these tracks has already surpassed 100 million streams.

Chinese language is like throwing a tin can down the stairs. Easy for any AI.

 

Carole and Tuesday irl

 

How 'bout using their overintelligent brains to solve some real problems?

 

Where's the tracks dude?
I expected some kind of Mumbling and Twerking sexually ambiguous yet unconformist Trapp AI from the Hood..

 

Yeah, we don't need Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston and Ella Fitzgerald anymore!

Luddites, where are you?

 

Finally I have a chance to be a good singer in the future, might be even can compete with pop stars or golden voice legends. Any teen will become good singers soon?

 

Won't be long before an AI bot sues a human for stealing their music.

 

A.I. is boring and cheap.. nothing like some handmade.

 

Heck. China again...
first, their social rating (i.e. digital slavery) and now - songs...
looks like "the 666" times are approaching faster than we thought

 

Well, I wrote this scenario whereas an AI which was trained by being fed every rap song ever created and then steals another AI's girlfriend who happens to be a laptop computer. It's short but sweet and gets the point across sussinctly.
