🎵 Suno Releases v6

Suno has released v6, the first models trained together with Warner Music Group, BMG, and Believe, the major labels that sued the startup (in fact, there were no lawsuits with the latter two—the conflicts were settled through agreements).

The basic v6 and experimental v6-wild are available only with a subscription, while v6-mini is free for everyone. With v6, you can also edit only certain parts of finished songs, generate mashups, create samples, and turn images and videos into music.

❤️ One in Two People Consider Their Partner's "Relationship" with AI to Be Cheating

These are the findings revealed by AI Girlfriend Coach research project, which surveyed more than 1,700 American adults.

One-third of respondents consider any intimate interactions with AI to be cheating. Roughly one in six believes that being unfaithful specifically refers to attachment (emotional or sexual) to a bot. One in five does not consider such interactions to be cheating, but would still be uncomfortable with it.

💡 Men and women enter into "relationships" with AI in roughly equal proportions. 44.7% of Millennials, 31.6% of Generation X, and just 12.5% of Gen Z are willing to have an AI partner.
