AI that composes complex instrumental music for movies, games, advertising and other types of digital media

Descripción del proyecto

Enseñar a los compositores robóticos a escribir música

La inteligencia artificial (IA) transformará nuestra vida cotidiana haciendo que sea más fácil, segura y eficiente. La IA también está destinada a tener una repercusión de calado en la industria musical y del entretenimiento. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos AIVA desarrollará una herramienta de composición automatizada (Music Engine) que se utilizará en los motores de videojuegos existentes para crear horas de música única y de calidad mientras se juega. El proyecto concibe su nueva tecnología de IA como una herramienta de apoyo para los compositores humanos. La IA se ha entrenado con más de treinta mil obras de música clásica compuestas por compositores de fama mundial, lo que le ha permitido desarrollar la capacidad para componer bandas sonoras llenas de sentimiento.

Objetivo

Artificial intelligence is already affecting our daily lives. We are slowly growing to accept AI when it makes our lives safer or easier, but when it comes to creative pursuits we usually don’t feel the same way.
Composing talent is rare, and as a result a soundtrack can take up to 6 months in composition time & up to €500,000 in costs. The scoring process for soundtracks of entertainment content is still based on century-old methods of hiring a lot of different profiles (composers, arrangers, orchestrators, musicians, studio engineers, music supervisors, publishers) to manage the creation of quality music. While soundtracks scored by professional teams usually end up being great, the process doesn’t scale to today’s increasingly high needs for music in a fast-evolving media market.
We are building AI that has trained itself on 30,000+ of classical music pieces from world’s greatest composers. It developed an ability to compose soundtrack music that is full of emotion.
AIVA is the first virtual artist that is recognized by SACEM—the French professional association that collects & distributes royalties and protects the rights of the original music creators. AIVA is the first AI composer that got commissioned to compose a piece for the National Day celebrations in Luxembourg & an anthem dedicated to the city of Dubai that were both performed in 2017 during the celebrations.
We are transitioning AIVA from a service to an embeddable product—an automated composition tool (Music Engine) to be used in the existing video game engines to create hours of quality unique music to support the game play at a fraction of cost of human composers. We are also positioning AIVA as a support tool for composers to speed up their work.
We plan to reach €26m revenues by 2023 with 200+ FTEs employed.
