The latest big company to dabble in AI music is ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, which is starting intensive testing of a new app called Ripple.
Bytedance says it is a free app designed for musicians and social media creators, for the former to help them compose tracks, for the latter, to offer them a tool to create background music for videos.
The app includes a feature called Melody to Song, which allows users to hum a melody. Ripple will then expand it with instruments in different genres of music. BytaDanse reports that the AI model Ripple uses has been trained on music it owns as well as music produced by the company itself.

Not trained on commercially available music from record labels or artists via TikTok SoundOn. As for who owns the copyright of this produced music, a Bytadance representative says that the music creator owns the content that the user uploads as long as they have an intellectual interest in that content.
