At present, the American company Google is actively Engaged in research in the field of machine intelligence. The corporation has already presented the world with several artificial neural networks specializing in images. These math models are able to decorate black and white pictures, make from ordinary pictures painting in the style of famous artists and even create their unique drawings.
Now, Google experts have decided to move into a few another area and teach the robot to understand a different kind of art, creating it has its first work. As part of the new Magenta project company employees wanted to train the car to perceive and then on the basis of this experience is even composing music. The program was fed a huge variety of compositions, and after the neural network learned this information, artificial intelligence first issued musical composition of his own composition. You can listen to this melodious melody for world computer science, by turning on the video below.
In fairness it’s worth saying that the program wrote only keyboard part of the composition. Percussion and some others repetitive effects have been added by Google for giving the music a more presentable look. Of course, this is still far from Mozart and Beethoven – such a simple melody can be unless used as a call on a mobile phone or background music in some television show. However, specialists argue that the intelligent software algorithm has tried to fame, and such a “test of the pen” turned out to be extremely successful.
What is musical artificial intelligence for?
The leadership of the corporation notes that artificial intelligence hardly replace the ever living composers since human skill and musical talent imitate program code is unlikely to succeed. Researchers pose a completely different goal. They intend to develop a “smart” a machine that will be able to learn and use their skills for the good of humanity.

If you equip artificial intelligence like a musical hearing, he can, for example, help users search the web Internet these or other songs – it will be enough only to purr the melody that you heard on the radio or in the movie, and the program will give you its name. Today there are already online resources allowing you to find music in this way, but their effectiveness functionality is very far from ideal, since there are involved the most primitive algorithms.
In addition, such programs can become indispensable assistants. for musicians. If an artist, say, doesn’t keep pace or tonality for some reason, an intelligent machine will be able it is easy to identify these flaws in its execution and point out to them that we will be perceived by a person without resentment and suspicion of bias.
