I wish an AI to kick me in ass when I don't make enough music, heck I would even pay for it.

In Binary format the "Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything" is : 101010

You could use this converter to get the decimal number from it:

It probably only seems absurd to you because as humans we have such a limited perspective on the subject.

No, it bores me* because of the childish if not infantile egocentric nature of the desire. And the failure of reflection...

* I didn't use the word absurd, I said it was stupid.

What subject? Being alive vs dead? I tend to think there's not a lot to grok about the latter.

Sometimes the Schrödinger Effect kicks in and I feel simultaneously both dead and alive.....

im not sure if its a growth on her leg, or whether its just an abstract of boobs and labia?

so it gets the same reaction picasso often does from me...

Nice algorithms there.

That is exactly why its useless for creative art. It might be capable to reproduce the historic frames we place our art in. It can only find new recombinations, nothing really new.
Yes, you can teach a neural network to compose like Bach, but he gave us already plenty of it, we long for Cage...; - )

An AI would easily be able to follow "The Manual" and create hits, but they will be forgotten soon...
Docorin' The Tardis has no musical value, but the book how they made a No. 1 hit is a piece of art.

Exactly. Algorithms. That's all today's so-called AI is. There is no artificial intelligence. If it cannot think, it's not intelligence.

Pose the thread's question again in the (likely distant) future, when humanity manages to figure out how brains work and emulate them...

...or when artificial intelligence accidentally arises from our existing overly complex non-deterministic interacting computer systems. We already have non-deterministic computers, but the only thing "arising" from them is undesirable and stupid "behavior" (design flaws; often excused as "inevitable bugs" by computer apologists).

"Having already released its first album called Genesis, as well as many single tracks, Aiva recently became the first AI ever to officially acquire the worldwide status of Composer. It was registered under the France and Luxembourg authors’ right society (SACEM), where all of its works reside with a copyright to its own name".

Did it register itself, or did someone do it on its behalf?

About the point about talking again when humanity figured out what intelligence, creativity, and the human brain is really all about, well... are we talking centuries, or milleniums here?

If i would have to consult my crystal ball, i'd say that we might be able to do that in a thousand years from now. And, to be capable of translating all that into an "intelligent" computer system, maybe another thousand. If ever. I really don't see how, unless we invented organic systems until then. But, what would the point of A.I. be then, when we could just replicate humans?

Neural networks are not just algorithms. The OP posted it exactly at the time you proposed to him, instead of the (likely distant) future we have that now!
A neural network is emulating what scientific research found out about how our brain works. This is not even new, but until now the power of computers had not been good enough to yield useful results. And its still way behind the capabilities of our brain.

On the other hand, it only mimics learning, not creativity.
And there is simply no demand of humans to be replaced by creative machines. I would not want to have one. The creative process is the fun part of live...

How will smart software (artificial intelligence) influence the perception and creation of music?
