Nvidia says its new AI music editor can create “sounds never heard before” — like a trumpet that meows. The tool, called Fugatto, is capable of generating music, sounds, and speech using text and audio inputs it’s never been trained on.

Nvidia’s Fugatto is designed for ‘film or audio productions,’ but it can also create the sound of a saxophone howling like a dog.

Nvidia, known for its sophisticated computer chips, is doubling down on its artificial intelligence offerings, developing a new generative AI audio model that can “produce sounds never heard before.” The new AI model is called Fugatto,

Nvidia's new model was trained on open-source data, and the company said it is still debating whether and how to release it publicly.

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) unveiled a new AI model called Fugatto for generating music and audio, aimed at people producing music, films and video games. Fugatto (Foundational Generative Audio Transformer Opus) generates or transforms any mix of music,

"We wanted to create a model that understands and generates sound like humans do," said Rafael Valle, one of the researchers behind the project and a manager of applied audio research at NVIDIA. The company listed some possible real-world scenarios wherein Fugatto could be of use in its announcement.
