At her Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction interview backstage, Sheryl Crow told reporters that AI inspired her to write a song to deal with her fear of the technology. Sheryl Crow found inspiration for her new album from artificial intelligence, though she said the technology left her "terrified." At her induction to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame earlier this month, Crow said she hadn't intended to do another album, planning instead to just release songs. But then "when the whole AI thing started coming out, particularly with the Beatles thing, and also having witnessed how AI is being used in my art form, I wrote a song about it." She continued, "I was terrified, and where do I go when I'm terrified? I go to my studio," adding, "And I found myself writing just one thing after another, and lo and behold I had 10 songs."

"Now and Then", a new song from The Beatles, was created with the assistance of AI The Beatles will release what is said to be their last ever song this week, pieced together from recordings spanning more than four decades – and it would not have been possible without AI. Now and Then has been edited together from a recording of the late John Lennon playing piano and singing at his home in New York in 1979. Now, artificial intelligence has been used to extract usable sections from that noisy tape. These have been combined with guitar tracks from the late George Harrison, recorded in 1995 when efforts were made to finish the song. These were reportedly called off due to poor sound quality, which AI has now been able to solve.

The remaining Beatles, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, have completed the band's final song, decades after their breakup and the deaths of John Lennon and George Harrison. The band announced the song, titled "Now and Then," will be available worldwide Thursday, Nov. 2, paired with a re-release of their very first single, "Love Me Do," which debuted in 1962. "Now and Then" features vocals from Lennon as well as guitar performed by Harrison, recorded six years before his 2001 death. According to a press release for the song, Lennon recorded a demo with vocals and piano in the late 1970s while living in the Dakota building in New York. The Beatles announced a new song, "Now and Then," featuring contributions from the departed members of the band, John Lennon and George Harrison.

There are two aspects of machine learning and artificial intelligence: (1) interpreting information, and (2) inventing new useful information. Much advance has been made for (1) with a focus on pattern recognition techniques (e.g., interpreting visual data). This paper focuses on (2) with intelligent duplication (ID) for invention. We explore the possibility of learning a specific individual's creative reasoning in order to leverage the learned expertise and talent to invent new information. More specifically, we employ a deep learning system to learn from the great composer Beethoven and capture his composition ability in a hash-based knowledge base. This new form of knowledge base provides a reasoning facility to drive the music composition through a novel music generation method.

Evans' mention of Beatles legend John Lennon ended up becoming somewhat of a reality, but not in the hands of just any creator, but fellow Beatle Paul McCartney. Earlier this year, McCartney told BBC Radio 4's Today show that there was a new final song from the band in the works, with the assistance of AI. "When we came to make what will be the last Beatles record it was a demo that John had – that we worked on and we just finished it up – it'll be released this year. We were able to take John's voice and get it pure through this AI so that then we could mix the record as you would normally do," McCartney said. After some backlash from fans, McCartney clarified that Lennon's vocals were original and not generated by computer. "We've seen some confusion and speculation about it," he shared to X. "Can't say too much at this stage but to be clear, nothing has been artificially or synthetically created. It's all real and we all play on it. We cleaned up some existing recordings – a process which has gone on for years," he assured angry fans. The last two surviving Beatles, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney, have made it clear that there is nothing artificially generated about their late bandmate John Lennon's voice in a new song, set to be released later this year.

What initially introduced me to Mumdance were his grime instrumentals. His collaborations with Novelist -- songs like "Take Time" and "1 Sec" -- placed the punishing buzz and pings of Boy In Da Corner in a cavernous negative space that the foreboding atmosphere diffused into. The English producer's continued to demonstrate his compositional clarity with projects like the 2015 Logos collaboration Different Circles, which brought his beats into the avant-garde, and the shoegaze-drone LP Bliss Signal, an album created with WIFE and released in 2019. Throughout it all, Mumdance has always sounded in control. But on his new song, "Artificial Intelligence," he feels more like a vessel for some kind of demonic pirate rave entity than its conductor.
