AI-Music Arms Race: Meet Udio, the Other ChatGPT for Music
AI-Music Arms Race: Meet Udio, the Other ChatGPT for Music
A new Suno rival, Udio, is here, backed by tech and music heavyweights. It has powerful capabilities — and a weird habit of resurrecting Tom Petty
I've messed around with Udio and Suno quite a bit and I think Udio is a bit better. Especially with generating vocals without an auto-tune sound. Although I don't think it responds to prompts quite as well.
Oh, cool, I hadn't heard of these.
takes a look
These are actually pretty impressive.
I mean, I recall looking at last efforts at computer-generated music, but this looks remarkably general purpose. They've got meaningful lyrics, vocals, and instruments.
I thought so too. It's really fun to mess around with as someone who isn't very musically inclined. I did a quick search on Lemmy and was surprised to see neither has really been posted about.
Hahaha, one of those on the top weekly tracks has the thing singing "lorem ipsum":

I was already giggling at one that had lyrics about Dune.
I think you can provide lyrics yourself, can udio generate lyrics on its own? I listened to some of the staff pick songs, and they were pretty good. I'm not musically inclined, and I have zero skill in coming up with lyrics, but stuff like this and Midjourney let me be creative in ways I don't have natural talent in.
I bet Udio is going to loathed by musicians even harder then artists hate Midjourney.
I feel exactly the same way. I can now be creative in ways I couldn't before. Sometimes I'll use my own lyrics, sometimes I'll use ChatGPT to write lyrics and I'll edit. It's really fun to play with the same lyrics in different genres too.
Thanks for posting, don't mind the downvotes from the luddites :D
No worries, I just wanted to share a couple cool AI tools. Figured this sub was as good as any to post about Suno and Udio in.
