About this episode

John Dyhouse shares his experiences of creating a unique story and song for his child, highlighting the challenges faced with AI technology.

The hardest I have ever worked to get even close to where I wanted to be. As a new dad, as my lad grew, I always used to sing / read him to sleep. He had a large collection of soft toys which resided on his bed. Of course this gave me lots of scope to make up stories and songs on the fly. This is one of the few that were ever noted / recorded. When I attempted to give it the Suno treatment, I have never had such a difficult job. Of course, The AI was used to my personal styles, but the major issue was it insisted that a childlike voice should be female. And half the time/iterations gave me a duet between an adult and a child. In the end, I slowed the tempo down by about 0.75% (keeping the original pitch) and then slowed this by another .95% and let the pitch become lower. Whew, what a job. But at last this is almost there. Maybe the next will be easier.
