This Generative Now podcast episode features Michael Mignano interviewing Mikey Shulman, CEO of Suno, a company using AI to create music. The interview covers Suno's progress over the past year, including the release of new models (versions 3.0 and 4.0) resulting in improved music quality and a mobile app launch. A significant portion focuses on audience-submitted questions regarding API plans (currently none), future model improvements (increased realism and control), copyright implications of AI-generated music, and Suno's competitive moat (superior product and network effects). Shulman also discusses Suno's vision for the future of music, emphasizing increased accessibility, social interaction, and the potential for AI to push creative boundaries. The podcast concludes with a discussion on the challenges and opportunities of building an AI music company.
