Project Magenta: Music and Art with Machine Learning (Google I/O '17)

Google Brain researcher Douglas Eck explores Magenta, an innovative project that leverages TensorFlow to create art and music through the power of deep neural networks and reinforcement learning. Discover how this initiative embraces the artistic and musical community. We dive into the technical details and challenges faced in building generative models. No machine learning expertise is necessary to engage with this Google I/O session.

Hey, Google Developers KZbin channel manager: Please add cards to the videos (especially the I/O talks) with links to what the speakers are saying. It takes an intern maybe an hour to do properly for a 30 minute video, and allows us as viewers to more easily get involved and excited about these talks. It is more interactive. You all made cards the de-facto instead of annotations for a reason, after all!

watched this like 10 times already. I love this so much!

[@AmCanTech]

The demo looks awesome!

[@koendejonghe1555]

'they actually pay us to do this sort of thing'. lucky bastards.

I love the mission of Tensorflow Magenta but I think the first goal should be to find the push button art tools, the electric guitar / sampler / turntable / paint in tubes / different brushes / deep dream, then move to the secondary goal which is probably equal to the first, teaching, training and exposing as many parts of the tools for experimentation. I believe creative people will drive it forward if it is open enough...

[@peterhayman]

so cool were the questions recorded?

[@computrik]

Impressive!

[@eSKAone-]

beautiful

[@PianoTranscriptionAndroid]

this is awesome

[@user-gp5oy3fm8o]

Can I use it at home? Make song? 😍

[@waltperko8389]

Hi, What I would like is A.I. plug-in for my Presonus Studio Artist MIDI editor that can help me find sounds for each MIDI line, help me find new avenues from my initial set of musical notes.

what is this guys name

[@FedJimSmith]

i thought magenta is a operating system kernel?

[@mr.wetdream5277]

Yeah let's just not have anybody ever make music physically again because you know computers and stuff by the way the Department of Education wants to teach computer coding to kindergarteners they want us all hooked up to the machine they want us to be in The Matrix Resist.

Stupid thing for near future, and threating in long term.
