But in the arts, can AI come up with something truly new?
This should be testable: train AI on all the music ever written before Bach, and see if it ever produces something ressembling Bach.
Maybe that kind of test has alretbeen done; it would be interesting to know what comes out of it.
- spyder 6y agoThe GPT-2 based Musenet music generator is already interesting but far from perfect. You can try it in the middle of this article: https://openai.com/blog/musenet/ https://openai.com/blog/musenet/ (you can even upload custom prompts in the advanced mode) Would be interesting to see it with the updated GPT-3. There is also AIVA with more production ready results: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzGkC_o9hXI&list=PLv7BOfa4CxsHAMHQj0ScPXSbgBlLglRPo&index=1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzGkC_o9hXI&list=PLv7BOfa4Cx... Not sure how it works, but it has better results maybe because it's using more predefined components and less AI so it's also less "creative".

- an_opabinia 6y agoObviously no. But there’s so much classical music out there, that an average person would never be able to tell the difference between something that is generated anew and something just really obscure. Have you ever tried copying and pasting sections of GPT output into Google?
- p1esk 6y agoThis should be testable There have been music resembling Bach written before Bach (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUcdBz3LIuU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUcdBz3LIuU). How much more of resemblance you hope for?
