TikTok users have recently been dipping into Artificial Intelligence’s seemingly endless potential to make some truly intriguing music content. This includes making music covers that sound incredibly realistic.

At the forefront of the new AI-generated music covers trend on TikTok is @ai_covers, a profile that allows internet users to hear how it would sound like if Justin Bieber sang Miley Cyrus’ hit “Flowers”, or if Harry Styles did Mae Stephens’ “If We Ever Broke Up”.

@ai_covers has become quite popular thanks to its fictional music covers, gaining more than 20K followers and 1.7 million video likes. The person behind the profile also takes requests, allowing others to come up with their dream music covers. That is how we ended up with Taylor Swift singing “Perfect” by One Direction.

The trend has been adopted by many other TikTokers, with videos containing the #aicover hashtag receiving 17 million views so far. One user even got an idea to have Kanye West feature on his song with the help of AI.

It sure seems these AI music covers are not going away anytime soon. So we might as well enjoy them. Continue scrolling to check out some of our favorite ones.
