OpenAI model generates genre-specific music with lyrics

San Francisco-based AI startup OpenAI unveiled a new generative model called Jukebox which it says generates genre-specific music with lyrics. The model reproduced songs by artists including Katy Perry, Elvis Presley, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj and Alan Jackson. OpenAI used raw audio to train the model and used convolutional neural networks to encode and compress raw audio.
