Beethoven's unfiinished to be finished by AI

[Eldorado]

"In the most ambitious project of its type ever attempted, a computer has been set to work to complete Beethoven’s unfinished 10th symphony.

"Artificial intelligence has long been able to compete with the human mind at games like chess and complex maths problems. But musicologists and computer programmers in Germany are attempting to prove it can replicate creative genius.

"And they plan to put the results to the test in a public performance by a full symphony orchestra in Beethoven’s birthplace, the German city of Bonn, next year.

"The project is part of celebrations planned to mark the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth."

The programmers say they’ve not heard any criticism on that front.
