Artificial Intelligence Programs That Write Songs
Santa Clara University, USA
Abstract: Despite decades of progress in artificial intelligence, songwriting remains in the human creative domain. Can a soulless machine help in the human quest for creative songwriting? How would an AI assist without taking away from the user’s self-expression? We will present two songwriting machines: ALYSIA, a machine-learning system that learns the relationship between melodies and lyrics, and MABLE,  which creates computer generated lyrics that tell a coherent story. Original songs created with these systems will also be shown.
Joint work with Rafael Pérez y Pérez, and Divya Singh, David Loker, Chris Cassion.
