"Is there any way to distinguish a sound file with intention from one without?"
There is a way of distinguishing a musician that plays "automatically" from a musician that plays with its heart. Every musician knows that the best performance is made when he/she is sincere.
Plus, you're talking about the "bits", that is the "form" but i'm talking about the content. You can have a machine spray some paint with some constrained rules on a canvas and reproduce the style of famous painters. But it will never have its own style, its own intention. No original and new message to communicate.
- Houshalter 13y agoIt's silly human bias. David Cope's program composed music which people claimed was great. As soon as they were told it was made by a computer they suddenly thought it was terrible. In a test between an actual composer and his algorithm, the audience thought the generated music was composed by a human. It's true today's algorithms might not be completely original, but then again neither are most humans. And this isn't a strict limitation, computers could learn to experiment with new patterns, or generalize further than mere imitation.
