Paul McCartney Sets the Record Straight: New Beatles Song Uses AI to Clean Up John Lennon's Vocals But 'Nothing Has Been Artificially Created'

Paul McCartney confirmed AI was used to extract John Lennon's vocal from an old demo for the new Beatles song
McCartney clarified that nothing about the new song was synthetically or artificially created
The new Beatles song features vocals and performances from McCartney, Ringo Starr, and the late John Lennon and George Harrison
Producer Jeff Lynne originally worked to clean up the Lennon demo but struggled, while AI allowed them to properly isolate Lennon's vocal
The new Beatles song and additional details about the project will be released later this year
