The Beatles are nominated for two Grammys thanks to AI

While reading through the list of Grammy nominees earlier I came across quite a surprise. There, competing for record of the year alongside the likes of Beyoncé's Texas Hold'Em and Chappell Roan's Good Luck Babe, was Now and Then by The Beatles. So, here's the story of how The Beatles got nominated for two Grammys -- they also snagged a best rock performance nod -- 50 years after formally breaking up. It starts with a demo John Lennon recorded in the 1970s that was given to Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison for inclusion on the The Beatles Anthology, released in 1995. While other tracks like Free as a Bird and Real Love made it on, technology wasn't advanced enough to separate Lennon's vocals and piano without reducing the recording's quality. But, last year McCartney and Starr used modern machine learning technology to pull Lennon's vocals for a new track.
