Meta has released another open-source AI model trained on hundreds of thousands of music tracks online.

While plenty of other models are running text generation, voice synthesization, generated art, and even short video, there haven’t been many quality examples of music generation released to the public.

The Meta researchers claimed all the music their model is trained on was “covered by legal agreements with the right holders.
