> I don't know what the point of machine generated music is.

Exploring the latent space of human music. It's a cultural mirror.



But at the risk of aligning mirrors to other mirrors and hollowing out the essence of it. Computers have been essential to the evolution of modern music, AI won’t evolve it anywhere because it needs to mirror the human work, and without people to do that it’s a sad dead end. But I doubt people will stop learning instuments and stop making music the old way because it is too fun and meaningful to do that. But there’s a possibility it will shift in magnitude in either direction. Hope to go the way chess did and not press a button and a few faders and call it music.
