The Globe and Mail reports in its Monday, March 4, edition that Suno is a company that develops generative artificial intelligence software, enabling users to create unique songs using text prompts. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that the program allows users to create instrumental tracks or songs with lyrics, which can either be generated by the software or provided by the user. However, if the user submits copyrighted lyrics the software will not produce the song. The software also does not make songs intended to sound like other artists' work. Alphabet's Google is working on similar software, called MusicFX, which can be sampled through its AI Test Kitchen site. As well, Adobe unveiled Project Music GenAI Control last month, which it described as an "early-stage generative AI music generation and editing tool." In December, Microsoft introduced a Suno-powered song generator for its Copilot chatbot. The technology behind these programs is similar to that powering the OpenAI's ChatGPT chatbot. While chatbots trained with text can predict the next word in a written answer, a music-generating program is trained using sound to predict the next acoustic sequence.
