Paul McCartney revealed that The Beatles’ new recording featuring additions from artificial intelligence will be released later this year. With a little help from AI, the voice of John Lennon was retrieved from an old demo, also subsequently completed by the technology. Although the name of the song hasn’t been revealed, it is believed to be “Now and Then”, a 1978’s composition written by Lennon at his New York apartment. It was one of the compositions featured on a cassette labelled “For Paul”.
It's no secret that samples have been used in music for decades, but lately it seems that they have become so commonplace as to be a crutch for many recording artists. Beyonce's new album, Renaissance, is just the latest and best example of this.
