Paul McCartney Reveals AI Use on Upcoming Final Beatles Album

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 figured AI tech would be used for this, but this still gives me a bit of the creeps

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?

I hope this is good!

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?

No!

I'll check that out now, thanks for the recommendation!

(Oops, looks like that was Drake and Weend you linked me to!)

Paul McCartney Reveals That the Al Used on the 2022 Revolver Remaster is Also Used on Upcoming Final Beatles Album

FTFY

Well if Paul says it sounds good it shouldn't be too bad.

Kind of creepy to know that the Beatles as a band will effectively be immortal through AI now.
