A final Beatles song has been made with the help of AI and will be released this year.
Although he did not name the song, it is assumed that it would be a 1978 John Lennon composition called Now And Then, according to aMcCartney also recalled that during the shooting of the 2021 documentary series ‘The Beatles: Get Back,’ director Peter Jackson was able to ‘extricate’ Lennon’s voice for clean audio. McCartney referred to artificial intelligence as ‘that kind of a thing.’
“He was able to extricate John’s voice from a ropey little bit of cassette which had John’s voice and a piano. He could separate them with AI. They tell the machine, ‘that’s the voice, this is a guitar, lose the guitar’ and he did that.”that efforts are being made through artificial intelligence to recreate the early Beatles, making McCartney’s voice sound younger and quite literally bringing Lennon’s voice back from the grave.
When BBC Radio 4’s Martha Kearney asked McCartney if he's heard the AI renditions, he said, “I dont hear that much because I am not on the internet that much. But people will say to me there’s a track where you know John’s singing one of my songs, and it is just AI.” While the AI renditions may be gratifying for The Beatles’ fans, it’s an issue the music industry is tackling now. There have beenthat have made their way to popular streaming platforms like Spotify and YouTube. And then song distributors have had to get these songs pulled down from the streaming services.
McCartney said that while AI gives the music industry some leeway, it’s also exciting because it’s the future. “So there’s a good side to it and then there’s a scary side. And we’ll just have to see where that leads.”
