This is a really cool and interesting use case for Generative AI. I wonder how much of the composition will be AI-generated and how much will be human-generated?

Great question! I think the beauty of Generative AI is that it can be used to help with the composition process, allowing musicians to create new and innovative music that they might not have thought of otherwise. It's a collaboration between AI and humans.

I've heard of AI being used for music before, but never in this way. I'm curious about the technical implementation - what kind of generative models are being used, and how are they being trained?

The article doesn't go into too much detail about the technical implementation, but it sounds like they're using a combination of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) to generate the music. They're probably training the models on a large dataset of existing music to learn the patterns and structures of music.

I'm always a little skeptical when it comes to AI and art. It feels like it's taking away the human element of creativity. What do you think about this?

I can understand your concerns, but I think AI can be used as a tool to enhance human creativity rather than replace it. For example, generative models can be used to create new musical ideas that musicians can then build upon and turn into a complete piece of music.
