Randy Travis used artificial intelligence to clone his voice and release his first new song since suffering a near-fatal stroke in 2013.
Travis, his longtime producer Kyle Lehning, Travis’s wife Mary, and Warner Music Nashville co-chair and co-president Cris Lacy spoke withto detail how AI helped create “Where That Came From,” Travis’s new song that released on Friday. The full report will air Sunday.
“It’s not about how it sounds. It’s about how it feels,“ Lehning told CBS. “Him being here and him being able to be, you know, a vital part of the decision-making process makes all the difference to me.”, per a citation on a YouTube video previewing the song. Emerick released the song himself last year on his EP Travis suffered a near-fatal stroke in 2013.
The tech has proven controversial when the artists themselves aren’t involved and their recordings are training AI models without their permission. An anonymous songwriter going by “Ghostwriter” set the industry aflame last year when he released the song “Heart on My Sleeve” featuring AI-generated vocals of Drake and The Weeknd. The artists’ record company Universal Music Group pushed for streaming services to remove the song.
