The Beatles’ Now And Then might have been billed as the band’s “last song”, but director Peter Jackson, whose machine learning tech was used to help create it, says that it’s “conceivable” that more music could be made if those involved wanted to.
It was Jackson’s team’s MAL audio software that prised apart the piano and vocal parts in John Lennon’s original cassette demo recording of Now And Then, paving the way for Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, the surviving Beatles, to complete the song and release it.
