AI Completed Beethoven's Tenth Symphony

Music historians, musicologists, composers, and computer scientists teamed up to finish Ludwig van Beethoven’s unfinished 10th symphony.  The musician only left behind some musical sketches upon his death in 1827. 

The team worked on finishing the symphony with the use of artificial intelligence. Scientists at the creative AI startup Playform AI taught a machine on Beethoven’s entire work and his creative process. This was done to ensure that the machine could be trained enough to generate a finished 10th symphony. The entire process took almost two years to successfully present a completed Beethoven symphony for the world to hear. Check out our Neatorama article on the matter here!
