TikTok Tests AI Song Feature to Auto-Generate Music
-
TikTok is testing an "AI Song" feature that uses AI to create songs based on text prompts entered by users. The lyrics are generated by TikTok's "Bloom" large language model.
-
The AI-generated lyrics are then paired with music from a pre-saved catalog within TikTok across genres like pop, EDM, and hip hop.
-
The feature has guidelines against exploiting/harming others, spreading false information, defaming, impersonating, or harassing.
-
It's unknown if or when AI Song will roll out more widely. TikTok may also change the name in the future.
-
The new feature comes as TikTok pushes deeper into music with its TikTok Music streaming service launched abroad last year, which may come to the US soon.
