Since all of his music is R&Bish auto-tuned, not that hard for a computer to generate that sound. (I have to admit, I've hit the "get off my lawn" phase, missing the "good ole days" of "real music" ie 90's hip hop)
If we take created by AI to mean: machine learning generates a crazy amount of some things and then humans pick and release the most interesting one, then AI can create some pretty amazing stuff.
Imagine a GPT2-like algorithm trained on all the world's music. It could then generate practically any style and probably quite creatively.<p>Then fine-tune it on a particular artist's style. It will then mimic that artist. Depending how strongly you fine tune it, you can bias more strongly towards the target artist or towards general music.<p>You could then generate music in the same general style as an artist but taking any amount of inspiration from the rest of the world of music. I imagine with enough data and the right algorithms it would work very well and sound fantastic.<p>The same applies to visual works which I'm sure the reader is familiar with.<p>Just remember the algorithms we have today are the starting point not the ending point.
There isn't any resemblance to Travis Scott besides the obvious "It's lit"-adlibs to be honest.<p>I loved the parts where they showed some PHP echoing some HTML to give the video that hacker vibe.
The voice was re-recorded and mixed to sound close to Travis's real vocals; no digital voice reconstruction. However, the reconstruction of his cadence/melodic style is cool to hear!
Check out AI made black metal, it's not fantastic but also well above garbage.<p><a href="https://dadabots.bandcamp.com/album/coditany-of-timeness" rel="nofollow">https://dadabots.bandcamp.com/album/coditany-of-timeness</a>
I'm certain that as the famous musicians die off or retire from performing, there will be a huge business of recreating their sound and generating new material.
