    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Aug 2 (Reuters) - Meta Platforms (META.O) on Wednesday introduced its open-source AI tool called AudioCraft that will help users to create music and audio based on text prompts.

    The AI tool is bundled with three models, AudioGen, EnCodec and MusicGen, and works for music, sound, compression and generation, Meta said.

    MusicGen is trained using company-owned and specifically licensed music, it added.

    Artists and industry experts have raised concerns over copyright violations, as machine learning software work by recognizing and replicating patterns from data scraped from the web.

    Earlier this year, Alphabet Inc (GOOGL.O) introduced its own experimental audio generating AI tool called MusicLM.

    I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    Everybody used to cry that the damn robots were coming for your jobs. Well I got news for you. They don’t want your jobs. What they’re taking is your hobbies. Get back to work, flesh bag.

      Hahaha. Copper top.

      I think that what AI may do, for a long time, is enhance our hobbies.

      Those who can, do. Those who can’t, AI.

      Just like early cryptocurrency, there will be value in work done. Seeing an artist create will be just as valuable as the resulting artwork.
