Lyria 3 will create short AI songs from prompts, images, or videos, adding lyrics, watermarks, and improved studio-quality sound.

Lyria 3 is the latest AI model from Google LLC and allows for the creation of short musical clips using only a few words or phrases. With its launch, Lyria will continue to make advances toward providing content creators with powerful AI-driven tools for creating original music. It will also allow users to upload images and videos and automatically create an original score to match. It is an example of how AI-generated music is evolving and expanding beyond using solely text-based prompts for generating songs.

The upgraded version of the Lyria 2 model now also includes automatic lyric generation, as well as improved studio quality sound on all tracks. Each track produced with Lyria will also include an invisible watermark that was created using SynthID. By using SynthID, it will be possible to verify if a musical piece was artificially created by Lyria. This will provide greater transparency and trust for consumers when using the AI-generated music watermarking and content veracity verification technology.

The launch of Lyria 3 is also a way to increase competition within the growing AI music area. Companies like Suno Inc. offer users platforms for creating songs using prompts and then allowing for advanced edits through advanced tools, with an AI song generator with virtual audio workstation features. At this time, Lyria 3 creates songs that are 30 seconds or less and is accessible only for adult users via Gemini’s app; however, there are higher volume limits for paid subscribers. Experts feel that Google could grow their user base further by expanding and developing enterprise-ready AI music generator application programming interface (API) integration solutions in the near future. This is an example of generative AI tools converging with traditional methods of digital music creation for 2026 and beyond.
