Several companies <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/information-technology\/2024\/04\/new-ai-music-generator-udio-synthesizes-realistic-music-on-demand\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">offer models<\/a> that ingest and homogenize human-created music, and the resulting tracks can sound remarkably \u201creal,\u201d if a bit overproduced. Streaming services have already been inundated with phony AI artists, some of which have gathered <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/ai\/2025\/06\/half-a-million-spotify-users-are-unknowingly-grooving-to-an-ai-generated-band\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">thousands of listeners<\/a> who may not even realize they\u2019re grooving to the musical equivalent of a blender set to pur\u00e9e.<\/p>\n<p>Still, you have to seek out tools like that, and Google is bringing similar capabilities to the Gemini app. As one of the most popular AI platforms, we\u2019re probably about to see a lot more AI music on the Internet. Google says tracks generated with Lyria 3 will have an audio version of Google\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/ai\/2024\/10\/google-offers-its-ai-watermarking-tech-as-free-open-source-toolkit\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SynthID<\/a> embedded within. That means you\u2019ll always be able to check if a piece of audio was created with Google\u2019s AI by uploading it to Gemini, similar to the way you can check images and videos for SynthID tags.<\/p>\n<p>Google also says it has sought to create a music AI that respects copyright and partner agreements. If you name a specific artist in your prompt, Gemini won\u2019t attempt to copy that artist\u2019s sound. Instead, it\u2019s trained to take that as \u201cbroad creative inspiration.\u201d Although it also notes this process is not foolproof, and some of that original expression might imitate an artist too much. In those cases, Google invites users to <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/gemini\/answer\/13275746?hl=en&amp;co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">report<\/a> such shared content.<\/p>\n<p>Lyria 3 is going live in the Gemini web interface today and should be available in the mobile app within a few days. It works in English, German, Spanish, French, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese, but Google plans to add more languages soon. While all users will have some access to music generation, those with AI Pro and AI Ultra subscriptions will have higher usage limits, but the specifics are unclear.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sour notes AI-generated music is not a new phenomenon.
