Paul McCartney has revealed AI's role in recreating John Lennon's voice for a forthcoming final album from The Beatles.
Quoting Paul: “It has great uses. So when we came to make what will be the last Beatles record, it was a demo that John had that we worked on. And we’ve just finished it up; it’ll be released this year. We were able to take John’s voice and get it pure through this AI so then we could mix the record as you would normally do.”
I have cautious optimism that this will be okay. I'm guessing it will be the typical towards the end-ish-of-the-year vinyl release, since each year they've been remastering their album catalogue?
Some of the AI mashups that people have created on social media sound really good—so I have faith in Paul and his producers to make John sound authentic. Have you heard Heart On My Sleeve?
