Engram is a sampler that turns broken AI hallucinations into music
The Verge 2 weeks ago 33
Thoughtful Things launched a Kickstarter campaign for Engram, a sampler and groovebox that uses AI to mangle incoming audio and generate new sounds. It runs its “tiny AI” model locally on the device rather than being connected to the internet. As a result, the product targets experimental, uncanny sound creation offline instead of aiming to produce radio-ready songs.
