OpenAI is reportedly working on a new artificial intelligence tool that can generate music using text and audio prompts. The tool will likely allow users to create complete songs, from vocals to instrumentals, making music creation easier and faster. According to Information, OpenAI has been collaborating with students from the Juilliard School to annotate music scores, providing the data needed to train the AI. The goal is to let users, for example, add guitar accompaniment to an existing vocal track or generate music for videos.
This move is part of OpenAI’s broader plan to expand its services beyond its popular chatbot, ChatGPT, which currently has over 800 million users. By offering new creative tools, OpenAI likely plans to keep users engaged longer and explore new revenue opportunities, such as helping advertisers create jingles or background music for campaigns.
Well, OpenAI is not the only company exploring AI-generated music. Google recently launched its second-generation music-making model, Lyria.

Before ChatGPT’s release, OpenAI developed two music-generation models- MuseNet in 2019 and Jukebox in 2020- but these were not integrated into ChatGPT.
OpenAI’s expansion into music follows the launch of its video-generation app, Sora, which allows users to create short AI-generated videos. Sora achieved over a million downloads in just five days, indicating strong interest in AI-powered creative tools.

This new music tool could transform how songs are made and provide both casual users and professionals with powerful ways to create original music with minimal effort.
