I saw a demo at a tech meetup in Austin where an AI wrote a full song in under two minutes.
It was last Tuesday at a small event downtown. A guy from a startup showed this new music model called Lyra. He typed in 'a sad country song about a robot losing its memory' and hit go. In about 110 seconds, it gave us a complete track with lyrics, melody, and a basic vocal track that sounded real. Three years ago, this would have been a joke. Last month, I saw a similar tool that could only make short loops. This was different. It felt like a real jump, not just a small step. It makes you wonder how many songwriters' jobs are safe now. Has anyone else seen a demo recently that actually shocked them?

That Lyra demo sounds wild, but a full song in two minutes is still just a demo, right? The vocal track probably still has that weird AI flatness to it. How many real songs have you heard on the radio that were made like that?
