Lovely explanation!

Just FYI: mouse-scrolling is much too sensitive for some reason (I'm assuming it swipes just fine in mobile contexts, have not checked that). The result is that it jumped from first to last "page" and back whenever I tried scrolling. Luckily keyboard input worked so I could still read the whole thing.

This takes me back. 1990, building Boltzman machines and Perceptrons from arrays of void pointers to "neurons" in plain C. What did we use "AI" for back then? To guess the next note in a MIDI melody, and to recognise the shape of a scored note, minim, crotchet, quaver on a 5 x 9 dot grid. 85% accuracy was "good enough" then.

Did the output sound musical?
