share
Recent breakthroughs in AI-generated music open the door for new forms for co-creation and co-creativity. We present Artificial.fm, a proof-of-concept casual creator that blends AI-music generation, subjective ratings, and personalized recommendation for the creation and curation of AI-generated music.
