Was AI Used To Complete What Will Be The Final Beatles Recording?
I never thought we would ever hear another new Beatles song but if we do, was Artificial Intelligence used to help finish the song?
The Beatles
The Beatles who were also known as the Fab Four, are regarded as the most influential band of all time.
The Beatles were an English rock band that formed in 1960 with John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison. there were actually a couple of other members that originally played bass guitar like Stuate Sutciffe and Chas Newby. There were two short-lived drummers Tommy Moore and Norman Cham before settling on Pete Best, but it was until just about halfway through 1962 that the Beatles added drummer Ringo Starr to complete the lineup we all know today.
The Beatles: Get Back Documentary
It was in late 2021 that The Beatles Get Back documentary came out that featured the making of the 1970s album Let It Be from unused footage and audio from the original documentary of the album by Michaels Lindsay-Hogg. It was Peter Jackson that directed and produced the new docuseries which is nearly 8 hours long and broken down into three episodes.
Jackson did a remarkable job taking 60 hours of original film footage and over 150 hours of audio while using virtual reality technology to make one of the greatest documentaries of a documentary of all time. During the making of this docuseries, some AI technology was also used to make some of the segments easier to mix.
Is AI Being Used To Help Finish a Final New Beatles Recording?
According to WOOD, Artificial Intelligence was used to pull John Lennon's voice from an old cassette demo of a song the Beatles were working on. Paul McCartney said, "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 do. It gives you some sore of leeway. The new song will be released later this year."
