Nvidia calls Fugatto, short for Foundational Generative Audio Transformer Opus 1, a "Swiss Army knife for sound" as it jumps into the AI music space.

Nvidia says its new AI music editor can create “sounds never heard before” — like a trumpet that meows. The tool, called Fugatto, is capable of generating music, sounds, and speech using text and audio inputs it’s never been trained on.

Nvidia’s Fugatto is designed for ‘film or audio productions,’ but it can also create the sound of a saxophone howling like a dog.

At this point, anyone who has been following AI research is long familiar with generative models that can synthesize speech or melodic music from nothing but text prompting. Nvidia's newly revealed "Fugatto" model looks to go a step further,

Nvidia has clarified that it has no plan in the near future to make Fugatto public, due to the risks associated with generative AI.

Rafael Valle, a key researcher behind Fugatto and NVIDIA's Manager of Applied Audio Research, said their goal was to create an AI model capable of understanding and generating sounds like humans. The company has detailed a few potential real-world applications of this tech.

From meowing trumpets to barking saxophones, Nvidia’s latest AI music editor is pushing the boundaries of audio creativity.

Graphics and AI giant NVIDIA has announced a new AI model called Fugatto (). Developed by an international team of researchers. It is being billed as "the world’s most flexible sound machine" taking on ElevenLabs and AI music maker Suno in one hit.

Described as a "Swiss Army knife for sound", Nvidia's AI model can also be used to separate stems and transform existing music
