I would be interested in an answer here! Many years ago (when LLMs were mere RNNs), I tried to do so electronic music generation[1]... the aim was to eventually try to do exactly this. But not a project I followed through on... [1] https:

At the risk of self-promotion, this is my take on Borges and AI... which is a song/video made by AI (jukebox and various previous-generation image generators), and based on Borges' fantastic essay "A New refutation of time.&q

As he admitted in an essay on the negation of time: “The world, unfortunately, is real, and I, unfortunately, am Borges.” He would have preferred to be a single word, rather than a man: [After death,] I would prefer another destiny. I

I think this discussion of convergent evolution is pretty interesting in context [0]. Namely, "intelligence" arises from natural-selection (ie from some non-intelligent predecessor that developed incrementally to better fit its e

Procedural generation for midi has been around for a long time - ever with fair more “primitive” archictures that current GPT-types. Even chat-run [0] can be used to generate midi-based classical scores… I can’t find the exact trained mode
