Sean Parker 围绕音乐重建 Stability AI
Napster 联合创始人 Sean Parker 重返音乐行业，他向 The Information 表示，这次他会遵守规则。（他坦承，上次“先道歉后请求许可”的做法并不太成功。）
两年前，他参与了对图像生成初创公司 Stability AI 的 8000 万美元救援行动，该公司因过度支出和内部动荡导致创始人 Emad Mostaque 被罢免而濒临崩溃。如今，Parker 和他的长期好友、现任首席执行官 Prem Akkaraju 正在揭晓他们一直以来的建设成果。
Parker 表示，核心理念是将 Stability 打造成音乐专业人士首选的 AI 工具制造商。为此，该公司于8月下旬宣布获得包括索尼、华纳和环球在内的投资者提供的 7600 万美元融资，作为交易的一部分，这些公司还授权其曲库用于训练。此后，Stability 发布了三款新的音频模型和 AI 音乐编辑软件。该 AI 可以根据文本提示生成完整的器乐曲目或短片段。Parker 表示，即将推出的更新将允许用户哼唱旋律或使用节拍盒鼓点来引导它。

Sean Parker is rebuilding Stability AI around music
Sean Parker, the Napster co-founder, has jumped back into the music industry, and he tells The Information that he’s playing by the rules this time. (Asking for forgiveness rather than permission didn’t work out so well last time around, he readily concedes.)
Two years ago, he joined an $80 million rescue of Stability AI, the image-generator startup that nearly collapsed after overspending and internal turmoil led to founder Emad Mostaque’s ouster. Now Parker and his longtime friend Prem Akkaraju, who became CEO, are taking the wraps off what they’ve been building.
The big idea, Parker says, is to turn Stability into the go-to AI toolmaker for music professionals. Toward that end, in late August, the company announced $76 million in funding from, among others, Sony, Warner, and Universal, which also licensed their catalogs for training as part of the deal. Stability has since released three new audio models and AI music-editing software. The AI can generate whole instrumental tracks or short snippets from text prompts. Parker says an upcoming update will let users hum a melody or beatbox a drum pattern to steer it.
