Q&A: Classical Pianist Lang Lang on Collaborating with AI in Music

#AI #AImusic
Does the future of music lie in the realm of artificial intelligence? World-renowned musician Lang Lang grappled with this question during a recent interview with Alizila.
In his search for an answer, the classical pianist turned to AI music generator JEN, developed by New Zealand-based company Futureverse and trained on an Alibaba Cloud platform.
“Collaborating with AI opens up a complete, whole new world of possibilities,” said the Chinese pianist, who has played at Grammy Award events, an Olympic Opening ceremony and recently received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
But AI models like JEN show that you don’t need decades of award-winning musical experience to try your hand at music-making.
