The very last Beatles record will be created thanks to the help of Artificial Intelligence according to Paul McCartney.
We have seen people ask conversational AI chatbots ChatGPT and Bard to create a song in the style of the Beatles. Now, the surviving Beatles used AI themselves to help create what Paul McCartney says will be their last song. «We just finished it up and it’ll be released this year,» Sir Paul said. The song, called «Now and Then,» was written in 1978 by the late John Lennon who was assassinated two years later.AI allows John Lennon’s voice to be heard on a raw demo that will be turned into a new Beatles classic
Back in 1995, George Harrison, McCartney, and Ringo Starr were working on the Anthology series which covered the group’s amazing career. «Now and Then» was being considered for the album after a cassette containing three rough demos was given to Paul by Yoko Ono, Lennon’s widow. The cassette was labeled by John «for Paul» before his death. Two of the songs on the cassette, «Free As A Bird» and «Real Love» were turned into completed Beatle songs by Paul, George, and Ringo. The two songs fit perfectly into the Beatles’ catalog and were their first songs in 25 years.
