I'm the creator of MuseGen. Like many here, I've been experimenting heavily with generative AI. My workflow quickly became a mess of browser tabs: one for music, another for images, a third for video, each with its own UI, credit system, and quirks.

This feels real dirty since F is a possible but irrelevant value, but I&#x27;m basically trying to h
