They'll learn what songs an individual likes and doesn't like, and based on that be able to at least create new songs that sound like lost songs of existing albums. As for creating a new genre, not so much, but I don't think they need to do that.

      Generative AIs somehow create a compressed representation of the patterns in the petabytes of material they're trained on, by adjusting the strength of the connections between billions of artificial neurons, and can then somehow generate novel output from the "latent space" of those connections. The two "somehow"s are "just" AI programming, but 10 years ago nobody predicted the results we're now getting.

      @@skierpage This was completely predicted. It was assumed that AI would get good enough to create new episodes of TV shows, and new songs with existing or deceased artists. We're not there yet, because of limitations in software. This is why personalized ones will make huge leaps and bounds through information they gather and share, because that will help the whole network or other systems innovate the apps and devices needed to allow AIs to do more and more.
      The personalized ones are the thing people fear, because they will be under some corporate umbrella, and therefore their ability to persuade and suggest, possibly even coerce, will give the creators a scary amount of power. The solution would be for the things to be open source, and be programmed with basic first principles when it comes to ethics, but that's not going to happen.

    Look up "Bad Man" By Disturbed on youtube. IMO its a great mix of human and AI art that forms a cohesive concept and theme for the songs music video and gives punch/depth to the lyrics and weight to the already heavy metal.
