Google DeepMind launched Lyria 3, an AI music generation model that creates full musical tracks from text prompts (including haikus, stories, or phrases like 'Check your email') or photos. The model features high customization with extended character limits, supports diverse genres beyond pop music, and integrates with Gemini App to suggest lyrics matching themes. Rolling out in beta today for 18+ users, it positions the Gemini App as a pocket-sized recording studio with multimodal input capabilities. This democratizes music creation by making professional-quality music generation accessible to anyone with a smartphone.
