I made the world's first viking metal song with AI-generated lyrics

[osiris]

Shit-tier art project: I made an AI listen to thousands of hours of viking metal, and these are the lyrics it came up with. It's a lyrics video because otherwise you wouldn't be able to enjoy all the creative new viking-style words the AI made. I've been growling for three weeks our something, so there's a lot of room for improvement - still happy I did this and overcame my stage fright to publish it.

Cool song, but the AI making up words seems more like artificial ignorance. Aside from that, great job! It's Nordic purelific distilleratious.

I ran it at high temperature, meaning it makes up more words. I think they sound kind of... medieval...

Anyway, you can try it out here: https://vikinglyrics.metalcoder.dev. I'm going to upgrade its brain to GPT2 sometime soon...

I seem to remember when you first posted about it - definitely a cool bit of software.

Hehe, yes a bit of self promotion going on here apparently 😅

Nothing wrong with that. A musician who doesn't self promote is one who operates in perpetual obscurity.
