Fenix Flexin 似乎确实使用了 AI 音乐生成器 Treblo

We were pretty sure that Fenix Flexin’s “Rubberz” was made using AI, but musician Medasin was confident that it was made using Treblo specifically. Now the company and a new detection tool seem to confirm it. 我们之前就相当确定 Fenix Flexin 的歌曲《Rubberz》是使用 AI 制作的,而音乐人 Medasin 则确信它是专门使用 Treblo 生成的。现在,该公司及其推出的一款新检测工具似乎证实了这一点。

On Monday, the company announced the open-source Treblo AI Music Classifier, which detects when a song was generated using Treblo, though not other AI tools. According to a blog post, it has a false positive rate of less than 1 in 10,000. That’s not unimpeachable, but it’s notable that the company’s own Classifier determined that “Rubberz” was “very likely Treblo” with “high confidence,” adding more fuel to the PR nightmare for Fenix. 周一,该公司发布了开源的“Treblo AI 音乐分类器”,该工具可以检测歌曲是否由 Treblo 生成(但无法检测其他 AI 工具)。根据官方博客文章,其误报率低于万分之一。虽然这并非绝对无懈可击,但值得注意的是,该公司自己的分类器以“高置信度”判定《Rubberz》“极有可能是 Treblo 生成的”,这无疑让 Fenix 本就陷入困境的公关危机雪上加霜。

Treblo does seem to be relishing the attention a bit. “The classifier returns a very high probability score for Rubberz, indicating the released audio was generated almost entirely by our model. That would make it the first known AI-generated song to reach the Billboard Hot 100,” CEO Ryan Tremblay said in a statement to The Verge. He continued, “Someone appears to have used our model to find a sound that millions of people connected with and that’s exciting.” Treblo 似乎很享受这种关注。“分类器对《Rubberz》给出了极高的概率评分,表明发布的音频几乎完全由我们的模型生成。这将使其成为首个进入 Billboard Hot 100 的已知 AI 生成歌曲,”首席执行官 Ryan Tremblay 在给 The Verge 的声明中表示。他继续说道:“看来有人利用我们的模型找到了一种能与数百万人产生共鸣的声音,这令人兴奋。”

Fenix has continued to deny that Rubberz was made using AI, and has posted clips of what he claims are the project files of the recording session. However, those low-quality videos have done little to dispel any allegations of the song being AI-generated. According to Stereogum, Medasin contended in a since-expired Instagram story that Fenix clearly just used an AI stem separator to fake the session. Fenix 始终否认《Rubberz》是使用 AI 制作的,并发布了一些他声称是录音过程项目文件的片段。然而,这些低质量的视频几乎无法消除外界关于该歌曲由 AI 生成的质疑。据 Stereogum 报道,Medasin 在一条现已过期的 Instagram 快拍中指出,Fenix 显然只是使用了 AI 音轨分离器来伪造录音过程。

Fenix did not immediately return a request for comment. Fenix 未能立即回应置评请求。

Correction August 5th: This story originally stated that the false positive rate for Treblo’s detector was 1 in 1,000; it is 1 in 10,000. 8 月 5 日更正:本文最初称 Treblo 检测器的误报率为千分之一;实际为万分之一。
