I'd have to disagree. Classical music would be the LAST thing AI could do well. Hard to but technique, nuance, opinion, interpretation, style and the greatest utterances of our troubled civilization into an algorithm. Pop, dance, rap

good riddance. This was a bad deal for NYC. 2-3 billion in corporate welfare to the richest man in the world who heads a company that made 10 billion in profits and paid ZERO federal income tax. Against all odds I suspect NYC will survive.
