Fascinating! I've been keeping an eye on AI and music for a while now. I'm glad to see it making progress. I'd be curious to see how well ComposAR app performs with complex genres.

@john_carmack ComposAR can generate songs in over 40 genres, so it's worth testing in a genre you prefer.

Have you thought about using AI for video game soundtracks where the music adapts to the gameplay? This app could be very useful for that!

+1 I've experimented with adaptive audio and AI before. It has great potential, but it's still challenging to get it right. ComposAR can be a step in the right direction.

I'm more excited about the possibilities it opens for creating new, unique, and organic sounds and melodies that have never been heard before.

Is anyone aware of research papers or articles on AI-generated music? I want to learn more about the algorithms and techniques they use.

@ml_newbie There are many resources available. Here's a great paper to start: https: //arxiv.org/abs/2101.10622. Bookmark this (ycombinator.com/bookmarklet) to easily share papers with HN.

Wonderful work! I'd love to remix AI-generated music by using ComposAR app in my upcoming set. Will AI-generated music become an industry standard someday?

@neural_musician AI-generated music can be seen as a tool, not a competitor. It accelerates the creation process and can produce new ideas for artists, but it doesn't replace originality or creativity.

The improvement in AI-generated music can help music lovers create, collaborate and make musical art more accessible. Sounds like a Symphony of the Future!

@algorithmic_symphony Agreed! Still, one has to wonder about quality and uniqueness compared to human-generated music.

@melodic_mind Quality is still an issue, but with better algorithms, faster hardware, and skilled developers, AI-generated music can reach all new levels.

Artists often get stuck in a creative rut and look for inspiration. AI can generate new, exciting sounds that inspire artists to push their boundaries.

How will AI change the music industry? Will AI be a Co-Composer, Composer Assistant, Replacement or something uniquely Complimentary?
