Meta, the social media company formerly known as Facebook, has released MusicGen, its own open-source music generator tool powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Unlike Google’s tool, MusicGen can be used by anyone, and is capable of converting a text description into around 12 seconds of audio. Users can also use reference audio to help steer the tool to their desired melody. The tool was trained on 20,000 hours of music, including 10,000 licensed tracks and 390,000 instrument-only tracks from Shutterstock and Pond5. While the tool performs well, it does not outshine human musicians, Meta has admitted.
