"The Beatles' Last Song: AI-Streamed and Controversially Fine"

"The Beatles' Last Song: AI-Streamed and Controversially Fine"

The Beatles have released their first "new" song since 1995, titled "Now and Then." The track was pieced together using breakthrough technology and machine learning, with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr completing a finished version from an old lo-fi John Lennon recording. The song had been attempted in the mid-'90s but was stalled due to technical issues. The opportunity to finish it came when director Peter Jackson developed a technology for his documentary, allowing the separation of different components of music. McCartney and Starr added their parts, and the completed track features elements from Harrison's past recordings. Despite initial doubts, everyone involved is satisfied with the outcome, considering it a genuine Beatles recording.
