YouTube Launches Experimental AI Feature With Voice Clones of Major Artists: Dream Track
YouTube is launching a feature that will give select users the ability to make music with the artificial intelligence-generated vocals of several prominent artists, the company announced late Wednesday.
The experiment, called Dream Track, is a text-based feature that allows users to make a request for a song by describing qualities such as the song’s mood or concept, and the AI will generate the music. As of launch, nine artists — Demi Lovato, Alec Benjamin, Charlie Puth, Charli XCX, John Legend, Sia, T-Pain, Troye Sivan, and Papoose — are lending their voices for Dream Track, and the experiment will only be available for a small group of users.
