Kanye West’s AI verse aka his apology track edit is shocking the internet as the audio seems too real not to be true.
Artificial Intelligence has been taking over the deep fake world where realistic edits surprise even the best of eyes. But after the deep fake of celebrity faces, now the music industry is also being infiltrated by AI edits including the latest one being rapper Kanye West‘s apology track.
KANYE WEST’S AI VERSE SHOCKS FANS
User-made AI verse of Kanye West has shocked fans as it seemed too real to be not true! AI expert Roberto Nickson made a video using reference vocals. He tweeted, “All you have to do is record reference vocals and replace them with a trained model of any musician you like” and added, “I found this Kanye-style beat on YouTube, I wrote eight bars, I’m gonna record them now and then I’m gonna have AI Kanye replace me.”
As Twitter users discover the video, reactions are pretty wild as many commented about how scary this would be when the user does not know if it is real or fake.
One user wrote, “Wow this is going to disrupt the music industry completely.”
KANYE WEST APOLOGY TRACK LYRICS
The rapper‘s AI apology track has some lyrics that will bring peace to fans who were hurt by the artist’s action as the audio sings, “I attacked a whole religion all because of my ignorance/ What was I thinking/ That was some b**** s***/ I lost Adidas/ But I’m still Yeezy.”
The AI adds some necessary Kanye element by rapping, ‘man I am genius/ These boys in the hood/ Just like I am Yeezy/ Kanye Weezy, Southside of Chicago/ Life ain’t easy.”
WHAT’S NEXT FOR AI AND MUSIC INDUSTRY
AI expert Nickson comments that the AI and audio deep fakes will be the worst that can be especially for the music industry. He adds, “In just a few years, basically every popular musician will have multiple trained models of them.”
Speaking of how to navigate through the AI takeover, he tweeted, “there will be a lot of regulatory and legal frameworks that will have to be re-written around this. We will have to figure out how to protect artists at the machine level. For example, Kanye has the right to protect his name, image, likeness, etc. – that might have to be extended to include any algorithm that generates the specific sound frequencies as well.”
As AI already offers pretty authentic voice-overs of anybody who has their audio on the internet, technically any user can try to make a rap verse using reference vocals and lyrics of their own. Nickson points out, “You’re gonna be listening to songs by your favourite artists that are completely indistinguishable. You’re not gonna know whether it’s them or not. I’m just thinking of all the good and the bad that will come out of this.”
