Create high quality music using AI

Stability AI released a new AI model, Stable Audio, that enables users to generate high quality 44.1 kHz music using simple text prompts!

Until now, the AI models could only generate music of fixed length, for instance 30 seconds. But Stable Audio uses a new “latent diffusion” technique to create custom-length music and sound effects.

Background music and sound effects are widely used in movies, games and apps like meditation, focus etc.

Stable Audio comes with a commercial license, so creators can generate music for commercial projects in seconds and at a fraction of the cost of hiring humans! Check out the demo here.

Amazon AI-tools to create product listings

Amazon launched a new AI tool to create product listings from images and enhance descriptions using additional information.

For instance, the AI can infer a table is round if specifications list a diameter or figure out the collar style of a shirt from its image.

The AI tool will help sellers to quickly create and enhance product listings.

But the AI-generated content still requires a human review as the AI could “hallucinate” aka produce coherent false information.
