Today we are featuring a Luxembourg based company and one of the leading startups in the field of AI music composition - AIVA technologies, and their CEO Pierre Barreau as well as Denis Shtefan, the CTO of the company. They are working on transforming the way people make music with AI. Their creation, AIVA, short for Artificial Intelligence Virtual Artist, composes music for film directors, advertising agencies, and even game studios. In fact, AIVA is so good, it has passed several makeshift Turing tests. 

In this episode we talk about how our guests got to start AIVA and what problem they are solving. We dive deep in the inspiration and creative process behind composing music people would like to listen to. What is the role of AI in the creative process? How did AIVA progress from generating single notes to creating complex compositions? We go over the current role of humans in the loop who work with AIVA, and discuss the future of music.
