How AI May Create Music for Videogames, Exercise Routines

The process for using AI in music composition is as follows: The algorithm will compose themes, which may or may not be curated, depending on the client’s briefing. The algorithm can also be trained to create different themes if the client wants something different. This quick turnaround is made possible because of how fast the system can compose themes. An algorithm can create a theme in four minutes, Barreau said. However even music composed by an AI system faces some of the same barriers faced by human composers, because it must be played by humans. By listening to great music, however, the AI has learned how to work within our human limitations.
