Artificial intelligence is writing Beethoven's unfinished symphony

In the run-up to Ludwig van Beethoven's 250th birthday, a team of musicologists and programmers is using artificial intelligence to complete the composer's unfinished tenth symphony. The piece was started by Beethoven alongside his famous ninth, which includes the well-known Ode To Joy. But by the time the German composer died in 1827, there were only a few notes and drafts of the composition. The experiment risks failing to do justice to the beloved German composer. Tthe team said the first few months yielded results that sounded mechanical and repetitive.
