adaptive procedural music isn't strictly something you need generative ai to create. that could literally be an apple watch app or some shit with normal programming practices.
as far as the generative stuff goes, i'm the most interested in the unintended results and failure modes, things people would never deliberately make. that would be better than algorithmic pop garbage
Something like this https://generative.fm/ or maybe something coded with supercollider, sonicpi, faust or something.
exactly. i wouldn't even be surprised if the biometrics-informed version has been done and most of us never heard of it because we wouldn't think to look for it
Yeah I'm talking about the AI creating something that does not exist or at least using what exists in a way that absolutely optimises emotional effect in a way that a human being can't without the realtime metrics. AI could theoretically not just make songs but make songs in realtime based on the response it is getting from the listener. This is inherently not something a human musician is capable of doing.
At that point I think I'm talking about music having potential to be similar to drug effects though. Music already does affect me like a drug, changing my mood and emotions entirely, optimising that in realtime could go interesting places.
The interesting part of this is not AI making stuff that already exists though. It's the potential for doing something that does not currently exist. AI becomes genuinely interesting to me when it's pushing that frontier rather than rewriting what's already been done.
