This is amazing! I've always thought that AI would change the way we compose and consume music. Can't wait to see how this develops!

@NightlyCoding The distinction is that midi synths needed explicit input from human musicians. Here, AI is making musical choices autonomously.

I read that AI-generated music is just math, not art. We need humans with emotions, bringing heart to their creations.

Will AI-generated music reduce the need for some musicians and composers, or even allow them to concentrate on leading a band?

It's possible. I think that AI can even create new music genres that would be unachievable by humans alone.

That sounds suspiciously like what happened with the book 'The Day A Computer Writes A Novel' winning a literary prize in Japan last year.

@FSharpDev Interesting! However, it's worth noting that AI was used as a tool, not as the sole creator of the novel right?

Blockchain-based royalty distribution for AI-composed tracks would help musicians profit while shedding light on their involvement in the creative process.

@DataScienceGrad Can AI not generate proper art? Or is there another layer of understanding that's eluding us?

Still reminds me of MIDI synthesizers we had in the 80's, though. Is it really revolutionary?

@NightlyCoding yeah, and check the compositions from Amper Music! They sound like came straight from a human mind!
