A new country song, with the voice of an artificial intelligence-generated singer, topped the US charts for the first time this week.
Breaking Roast’s song Walk My Walk achieved first place on Billboard magazine’s digital country song sales list, according to data published on Monday.
American media indicate that the band, whose voice does not bear the name of any known singer, was created entirely using artificial intelligence technology.
Although Breaking Roast has not confirmed the use of artificial intelligence on its official accounts, the group’s photos, graphics, and videos were made with artificial intelligence technology; What prompted the music industry to classify him as an artificial intelligence artist.
Music recognition programs indicated, according to Agence France-Presse, that the song was generated by artificial intelligence with a probability of between 60 and 90%.
Hubert Rivaldo Taylor is also mentioned as the song’s composer, a name associated only with Dave Betts’ AI group, known as an artificial intelligence project. The creators of the “Breaking Roast” page did not respond to a request for comment as of Tuesday.
This development comes after the spread of artificial intelligence music generation platforms, such as Sono and Audio, which allowed the emergence of virtual bands and artists.
In July, the creators of the “Velvet Sundown” project revealed that this rock band was the result of artificial intelligence, after one of its songs exceeded one million streams, while virtual singer Xania Monet became the first artist with artificial intelligence to enter the best-selling songs charts in September.
