Neutune's MixAudio ambition: Creating a platform similar to ChatGPT, but for music production and creativity.

In the heart of Busan, at the 2025 MWM Conference, conversations swirled about the music industry's AI revolution. The Korea Music Content Association (KMCA) orchestrated this event during the 18th Busan Port Festival, alongside MyK Festa, on May 30 [KMCA].
The conference wasn't just about hitting the right notes — it delved into the question of whether AI could churn out chart-toppers like "Growl" by EXO [1]. This debate ignited discussions about AI's potential to mimic human creativity in music creation.
One startup at the forefront of this wave is Neutune, known for their MixAudio platform. They're gunning to build an all-encompassing AI music agent that rivals the likes of ChatGPT [3]. MixAudio focuses on amassing a vast library of musical pieces to adapt and generate from, addressing copyright concerns by accounting for contributions.
However, not all is easy in AI-land. Legal challenges loom, particularly when it comes to utilizing copyrighted works to educate AI models. Neutune tackles these hurdles masterfully by probing and adapting musical fragments for proper attribution [3].
The conference branched out into a seminar, concert, and K-pop exposition, featuring the insights of music critic Cha Woo-jin and intellectual property professor Kim Kyung-suk. These sessions underscored the importance of collaboration between industry vets, government officials, and legal eagles to navigate this rapidly shifting AI music landscape [4].
