Artificial Intelligence (IA) and Art

Abstract

This essay is an attempt to answer a question: could the robot not only imitate an artwork, but also invent a melody like that of Chopin or a story in the manner of Flaubert? In the first part analysing the various trends of research into artificial intelligence research, in different parts of the world: at Sony’s Technology Research Laboratory and Creator of Paris, in the Department of Musicology of the University of California headed by David Cope, of Microsoft in France, of the University of Cambridge, in the Microsoft Research Asia, and in the Facebook Research Department, directed by Yann Le Cun, I raise the arguments for and against this hypothesis. In the second part, I point the difficulties that a robot would have to imitate a writer’s style due to the complexity of words revealed by the manuscripts, the often-innovative syntax and the difficulty of listening to the community
