Japanese researchers reveal AI software that makes you cry

Music follows a set of patterns that can extract feelings from its listeners and provoke emotional responses. While machines can now make music too, they don't give much consideration to the emotional response of their audience. But now a team of researchers has developed a machine-learning device that can detect the emotional state of listeners and make new songs that provoke new feelings. In the study, participants listened to music while wearing wireless headphones that contained brain wave sensors. The team of researchers, under the support of Osaka University's Center of Innovation (COI) program, developed the AI that detects users' brain state and provides a means for activating it through music.
