I'd be interested in a version that has learned accompanying portions to many popular melodies. If I could play the right hand part of a piece and it played the left hand I'd be very impressed -- also this would actually be useful software for aspiring pianists.

#12I like the concept and the framing of the demo is really cool, but the actual music generated in response to me doing basic things like playing a blues riff or a pentatonic scale was usually just a repeat of some fragment of what I was playing. It felt like something that could be built using a basic heuristic...
It seems it almost gets the concept of tone, but barely
And for some reason it worked on Firefox, but not Chrome (it doesn't even load for me)

#14To whoever implemented this AI: Can you actually play music yourself? Your AI can't. I tried to play “Satori Maiden” (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c9bea_thaM ), and your AI only replied with unmusical nonsense.

Go easy man. It's an "experiment" for a reason.

@hellofunk: If you want the ML algorithm to actually learn how to write music, at the very least, the programmer must be able to express the goal of producing musical sequences of notes.

#16Thanks for this!

I'm opposed to this trend of trying to replace actual understanding of the problem at hand with massive amounts of computation. If you want to write a program that writes music, then learn how music is actually written first. --- @hellofunk: If you want the ML algorithm to actually learn how to write music, at the very least, the programmer must be able to express the goal of producing musical sequences of notes.

#19Next, I tried putzing around on the white keys but made sure to never hit a F or F#. I wanted to see if it would try and guess which key I was playing in, C or G major. It seemed to guess C most of the time, though one time I tried hinting at G by starting out on G, it got confused and starting playing both F and F#.
I was just clicking with a mouse, so rhythm was hard to judge but overall this thing did a really bad job "complimenting" my playing!

Could just be a limitation of the training resources available.
