MAIN COURSE

Stability’s new song generator 🎧 🎶

Last week, Stability AI released Stable Audio Open. It’s an open-source audio model that creates song and sound effects.

I don’t lightly interfere; I heavy metal. 🎸

What can I do with it?

It’s a text-to-audio model you can use to make audio up to 47 seconds long. You can make drum tracks, guitar riffs, ambient noises and sound effects for videos. You can also edit existing songs, apply different styles to them, and more.

It’s open-source?

Yes, but it can’t be used for commercial purposes.

“A key benefit of this open source release is that users can fine-tune the model on their own custom audio data. For example, a drummer could fine-tune on samples of their own drum recordings to generate new beats.“

The ulti-mutt study 🐕 🔍

He won’t bring the ball back. It’s too far-fetched. 🐶 🎾

What’s the point?

The goal is to see if AI could identify a dog’s age, breed, gender, and more based on its sounds. It also analyzed if the dog was happy, angry, playful, and more.

How did they use AI?

They took noises from 74 dogs and fed the data to an AI model that analyzes humans voices. They fine-tuned it specifically for the dogs’ sounds.

Did it work?

The model identified the breed, gender, emotional state, and more from a dog’s bark with achieved a 70% accuracy rate.

Will we be able to talk to dogs soon? Anything is paws-ible. 🐶 🐾
