Transcript context

…But we are really focused on letting people make new and original music. And I think, you know, there's a lot of music AI, which is artist A doing the song of artist B in a new style. You know, let me have Metallica doing Come Together by the Beatles or something like that. And I think this stuff is very viral, but I actually really don't think that this is how people want to interact with music in the future. To me, this feels a lot like when you made a Shakespeare sonnet, the first time you saw GPT, and then you made another one, and then you made another one, and then you kind of thought like this is getting old. And that's not that doesn't mean that GPT is not amazing. GPT is amazing. It's just not for that. And I kind of feel like the way people want to use music in the future is not just to remake songs in different people's voices. You lose the connection to the original artist. You lose the connection to the new artist because they didn't really do it. Um, so we're very happy to just let people do things that are a flash in the pan and kind of stay under the radar. Yeah, no, that's a I think that's a good point overall about AI generated anything, you know, because I think recently T-Pain, he did like a an album of covers. And I think he did like a War Pigs that people really liked. There was like a Tennessee whiskey, which you maybe wouldn't expect T-Pain to do. But people like it. But yeah, I agree. You need to be a certain type of artist to really have it be entertaining to make covers. This is great. What else is next for for Suno? You know, I think people kind of saw you, you know, first you had the bark and then there was like a big, you know, music generated push when you did an announcement, I think a couple of months ago. I think I saw you like 300 times on my Twitter timeline on like the same day. So it was like going everywhere. What's coming up? What are you most excited about in this space? And maybe what are some of the most interesting underexplored ideas that you maybe haven't worked on yet? Gosh, there's there's a lot, you know, I think from the model side, it's still really early innings. And there's still so much low hanging fruit for us to pick to make these models much, much better, much, much more controllable, much better music, much better audio fidelity. Um, so much that we know about and so much that, again, we can kind of borrow from the open source transformers community that should make these just better across the board. From the product side, and, you know, we're super focused on the experiences that we can…
