As a musician, I'm waiting for the Copilot for music, which this is not. I.e., I want to define the 'problem'. In musical terms: I have an idea, it's 8 bars, maybe 12 or 16. I don't like what's happening at bar x. Give me 3/5/7 options for something different, but maintaining the instrumentation/orchestration I've established. Give me some "temperature" controls to depart, or not, from what I've composed thus far. Etc, etc.

I'd take just having more control at a more granular level rather than having it try to generate a full song every time (e.g. generating just foley noises, or just a guitar melody, etc).

Since copilot was announced I have been looking for someone to do similar for music. It will be fun when people can start seeding/prompting the tool in just the right way to have it reproduce copies of copyrighted music. It will be one of the more funny and novel way to lossy encoding music.

An LLM should be able to handle this. I have used it to remix midjourney prompts. They currently suffer a little bit in temporal and spatial reasoning. And I just checked, GPT4 will "make music" in ABC notation, nothing like "Tropical House 120BPM" tho. It is pretty lousy artistically, that it can do it at all is absolutely amazing. Here is a remix of Cooley's https://web.archive.org/web/20230513053704/http://pastie.org/p/3VdLKsSa6FIi8k5hnp6rW4 https://web.archive.org/web/20230513053704/http://pastie.org... which is the only ABC notation song that doesn't sound like ____ https://abc.rectanglered.com/ https://abc.rectanglered.com/ GPT4's remix has me in stitches!

It's not AI based but I use Cthulu to do this. You map chords to single midi notes, and there's an optional arpeggio/melody sequencer. The neat thing is chords don't have to correspond to they note they're mapped to. So C2 can be an Emaj, C#2 is Emaj9, D2 is Esus2, whatever you want and there's lots of premade chord packs from the community in every key and various styles. I like the Bach inspired ones. Because there's no relation between the note you play and the chord mapped to it, you can just noodle randomly without thinking of what you're pressing and just use your ears.
