Let's dive in.
Google created an AI that can generate music
Are you ready to rock your socks off with some text to music action? 'Cause Google's MusicLM has got you covered, my friend.
I know, I know, finding music that's just your jam can be tough. But with MusicLM, it's like having a personal DJ that speaks your language.
Imagine being able to tell the AI, "I want a sad, melodic piano piece" and BAM, it spits out a masterpiece. Or maybe you're feeling a little more upbeat and you tell it "I want a banger with a sick beat and some fire lyrics", and it delivers a hit single. The possibilities are endless, my friends.
And let me tell you, the examples on the link? Mind-blowing. I ain't gonna lie, I had to pick my jaw up off the floor. This is some next-level stuff.
But it's not just about the music, it's also about democratizing the creation process. Imagine all the new and unique sounds that will be made possible with this technology. It's like a whole new world has opened up!
And here are 12 prompts to create AI music.
AI is going to take our jobs
Will AI take our jobs? This Guardian copywriter said yes.
A professional copywriter has described how he was able to generate content using ChatGPT that was "perfectly passable as a sponsored content article" in just 30 seconds.
Hold up, folks! Don't go quitting your day jobs just yet. Sure, this fancy-schmancy AI technology might try to steal your job, but it might also save you time. Don't worry, for now, us writers and editors still have a shot at keeping our jobs - we just have to make sure to double check, fix up, and give the stamp of approval on all that robot-generated content. But let's be real, as ChatGPT gets smarter and smarter, our supervision may be needed less and less. So, you know, keep that in mind.
Another news from this field came from BuzzFeed.
Looks like ChatGPT is giving the boot to some of our BuzzFeed buds. Last month, the company had to let go of 12% of its workforce, with CEO Jonah Peretti basically saying "AI is taking over, suckas!" But honestly, can you blame them? With the announcement of using OpenAI's ChatGPT technology to generate all sorts of content, including quizzes, it's clear automation is the way of the future.
But hey, at least the stock went up 177%! So, who needs jobs when you've got stock gains, amirite.
Shutterstock rolls out a generative AI toolkit to create images based on text prompts
After signing on the dotted line with OpenAI, Shutterstock is now rolling out a new AI toolkit that's basically like a magic wand for creating images. Just give it a little text prompt and poof you've got yourself a new image.
Shutterstock has teamed up with the geniuses over at OpenAI to bring you the latest in image generation technology,
It's called Shutterstock.AI! With just a few simple keywords, you can now create larger-than-life, ethically-sourced images in mere seconds.
But, before you say goodbye to your beloved stock photographers, just remember that AI is still working on mastering the art of capturing that perfect sunset or that adorable puppy. But, who knows, maybe in the future, AI will be able to capture the perfect puppy-sunset combo!
