Stability AI, the startup behind the AI-powered art generator Stable Diffusion, has released an open AI model for generating sounds and songs that it claims was trained exclusively on royalty-free recordings. Called Stable Audio Open, the generative model takes a text description (e.g., "Rock beat played in a treated studio, session drumming on an acoustic kit") and outputs a recording up to 47 seconds in length. Stability AI says that the model can be used to create drum beats, instrument riffs, ambient noises and "production elements" for videos, films and TV shows, as well as to "edit" existing songs or apply the style of one song (e.g., smooth jazz) to another.
