MuseNet
OpenAI 7 years ago 42
OpenAI created MuseNet, a neural network that generates 4-minute musical compositions across 10 different instruments by learning patterns from hundreds of thousands of MIDI files. The model produces coherent pieces that blend musical styles ranging from country to Mozart to the Beatles without explicit programming of musical rules. MuseNet uses the same transformer architecture as GPT-2, demonstrating that general-purpose sequence prediction can apply to music composition as well as text.
