How to make music with Google Lyria in 2026

Google just released their AI music creator on the Gemini Chatbot platform. I was aware that Google was already getting their feet wet with the AI music, but now its available for the public.

Here is a guide on how to create music with this publicly available tool here.

What is Google Lyria?

Google Lyria is an AI music creator with Google Gemini which will create songs from various genres based on your word prompts, image prompts or video prompts.

This AI music generator is very efficient and easy to use. It is able to create songs within seconds which is better than its closest competitor, Suno, which while a good platform, is too niche. I prefer having everything AI in one app and Gemini provides that right now.

How to make music with Google Lyria

In order to create music. You need to get to the Google Gemini website or app.

There is a new icon avaliable in your options known as “Create music”.

When you click on that button, this screen will appear here.

Google Gemini Music Remix Interface

Google Gemini’s Lyria model gives you multiple tracks to remix in an interface similar to that of Open AI’s ChatGPT ai image generators.

Google Lyria Music Creating Songs

I decided to type in a prompt for making Chinese Traditional music with the guzheng here.

Lyria is prompt at making the music. Each song that is created is 30 seconds long.

Right now, the one area that it differs from Suno AI is that the songs are limited to 30 seconds.

Here is an example of one creation here.

As you can see, Gemini’s music AI model will create an image which represents the essence of that song here.

The quality of the music is very high. The Guzheng is one of my most favorite of all musical instruments.

How should you use Google Lyria?

I have already been using Suno AI to create quick songs for me to put on my MP3 Player. Many of these songs are enjoyable to play. Considering that I have an interest in Baroque and Classical music, these AI songs are not as much of a bother for me.

If you have a YouTube channel, having these AI music creators are a great substitute to taking other people’s music. While the human touch is very important, people have been using stock music and images for many years. Now, we can even more precise usage of such content to enhance your videos.

Considering that these songs are only 30 seconds long, I believe that Lyria is great for making music for intros to your videos here. In this era of YouTube videos, intros are very important for getting people interested in your content and most importantly, increasing interaction with that same content here.

Google Lyria is an amazing tool already

This new release is an amazing tool and shows how powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) can be. That you can attach a video and create a song will reinvigorate the creativity in humanity. AI can be both a companion and tool in this journey to help water the garden of our imaginations.

How to save money with AI in 2026: Switch to ChatGPT Go

What is ChatGPT Go?

I have made the choice to switch to ChatGPT Go. This is a new tier in the subscription model in here. It is a basic tier above the free usage of the AI chatbot here. It only costs $8 dollars a month.

ChatGPT has been go to LLM since 2023 alongside Microsoft’s Copilot. However, Google was going to catch up at some point here. While they had some stumbles with earlier versions of their AI models, Gemini is really proficient at creating something specific to my interests, photorealistic images. While many people may be tiring of photorealism in movies or video games, I love seeing how an alternate world or historical age would appear through some tweaks in the prompts.

ChatGPT Pro is $20 dollars a month and I think it has more value than a Netflix subscription. Netflix is just stuffing their platform with games and podcasts instead of filmed shows and movies. ChatGPT can be applied to many areas of productivity and entertainment here.

There has been some criticism of ChatGPT in recent weeks. Some say that the site is burning money. Here is my view: Every internet site goes through this phase. The main difference is that ChatGPT has gone from making 3 billion dollars to making 20 billion dollars in 2025.

The company is requiring some very heavy investments in capital, but I believe that they are on the right track in here.

Who should be using ChatGPT Go?

AI tools are some of the greatest ways to be productive and creative at the same time here. However, these tools are not cheap, and we need to be finding more economical ways to use these groundbreaking tools without spending too much here. This makes sense to anyone who wishes to save money in order to balance their budgets here.

Advertising is a necessary part of growing an internet business now. Open AI has to be careful about how it implements ads into this tier of their services. I do not want to be like how Netflix is shoving their ads into their shows. It needs to be subtle and not in your face here. The approach that they seem to be taking is nice and I appreciate it. They need to make it relevant to the users of their accounts. There have been too many ads that are basically irrelevant to my usage in cyberspace.

ChatGPT is approaching 800 billion weekly users. This is an incredible market to use for monetization and for the stabilization of the AI bubble. However, they need to make sure that they produce a product which people want to use. They need it to be useful for their everyday lives in both entertainment and productivity.

ChatGPT Pro is simply too expensive for me right now and ChatGPT Go is prefect for my usage. Having more affordable options to use AI is great for us.

This tool has changed the economy and the world and now its time to find the best way to use it for the betterment of our age.
