It is a notion that may seem inherently disturbing to some fans: a cherished group who broke up 53 years ago, with only two members still living, being resurrected by the power of technology
A cassette was later passed to McCartney by Lennon’s widow, Yoko Ono, with John’s handwritten note stating simply “For Paul”. It lends a touching aspect to a song which could be interpreted as addressing the relationship between the two old collaborators: “Now and then I miss you / Now and then I want you to return to me”.
Since the death of Harrison in 2001, that “democratic” power base has shifted. “That one’s still lingering about,” McCartney noted in 2012, who promised to “finish it, one of these days.”Article content McCartney has actually used technology developed for Peter Jackson’s 2021 Get Back documentary, where computers were trained to recognise Beatle voices and separate them from background noises and other instruments to create “clean” audio. Isolating and beefing up Lennon’s vocal means that the original demo could be brought up to contemporary studio standards, with McCartney himself finishing off the song. Harrison, despite his reported views will also feature, with parts recorded in 1995.
As it stands, copyright laws make it difficult to monetise AI when it is imitating living artists. Entirely AI generated pop, on the other hand, could soon be flooding streaming sites as a kind of AI muzak, offering cheaply licensed alternatives to human content. And there are concerns about rights holders for deceased legacy stars licensing AI cloned voices. We already have remixed albums of stars from Elvis Presley to Billie Holiday, with new contemporary or orchestral backings.
