The Beatles’ AI-assisted monitor “Now and Then” gained the Grammy for Best Rock Performance on Sunday evening, marking the primary time {that a} music of its sort has taken house the award.
No, Paul McCartney didn’t use AI to create some creepy LennonGPT bot. Instead, he used noise discount programs to scrub up a decades-old, low-quality piano demo from his late bandmate. This know-how is just like what video name suppliers like Zoom, FaceTime, and Google Meet use to dam out undesirable background noise and ship a clearer sound.
The surviving Beatles first tried to repair up Lennon’s demo within the 90s, however the know-how obtainable on the time couldn’t fairly extract Lennon’s muffled vocals. In 2022, after studying how the filmmakers behind archival Beatles documentary “Get Back” have been utilizing new audio isolation methods to make poorly recorded demos listenable, they revisited “Now and Then.”
