Listen to this black metal album that was created completely by AI technology

Artificial intelligence has reached a new frontier: creating black metal music without the need for actual musicians. Two musical technologists named Zack Zukowski and CJ Carr have created an algorithm that can learn bits of existing music and then duplicate it to create a completely new song, the Outline writes. To prove it, Zukowski and Carr, under the name Dadabots, created a heavy metal album called Coditany of Timeness that sounds like a real metal album. That's because it is a real metal album--just one created by AI. Zukowski and Carr took small pieces of a 2011 album called Diotima by the death metal band Krallice, and, as the Outline explains, "Then they fed each segment through a neural network--a type of artificial intelligence modeled loosely on a biological brain--and asked it to guess what the waveform of the next individual sample of audio would be. If the guess was right, the network would strengthen the paths of the neural network that led to the correct answer, similar to the way electrical connections between neurons in our brain strengthen as we learn new skills."
