Watch my panel discussion on future role of Artificial intelligence /Machine learning (AI/ML) technology in experimental/academic music with Bob Sturm and Oded Ben-Tal. Bob Sturm is Associate Professor of Computer Science at KTH Royal Institute of Technology and Oded Ben-Tal is composer and senior lecturer in Kingston Univeristy of London. They both work on projects that explore use of AI/ML for music.

We have discussed:

  1. How AI/ML may change the world of academic music (e.g empower composers or replace it)?
  2. Will AI/ML democratise academic composing?
  3. What skill set will be needed in the AI/ML powered compositional world?
  4. Can AI/ML produce novel music or improve existing one?
  5. What are the quality criteria for good AI music?
  6. What are current use-cases of AI for music?
  7. What are examples using AI/ML tools in a subverting/experimental way?
