Music, as indeed all the arts, is a historical process. What we can listen to today acquires meaning only because of what was composed and played not only yesterday but throughout the time between the Middle Ages and yesterday. Unfortunately, for strange reasons, knowledge of so-called “cultured” music (a term I dislike) is concentrated in a period that comprehensively covers the Baroque, Classicism, and Romanticism. Already, beginning with the period from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, many authors begin to thin out their treatments and leave it to the reader/listener to delve into what happened next.

In this episode, I wish to clarify (which, by the way, has already been done extensively by many scientists) what is true about the alleged benefits of a 432 Hz pitch compared to the modern standard of using an A at 440 Hz. Without unnecessary preamble, I can already anticipate that the pseudo-scientific theories supporting the 432 Hz are, as is almost always the case, the product of people who wish to invent conspiracies and all other forms of collective lies to satisfy an ego not much gratified by daily life.

In this episode, I would like to analyze the relationship between music and generative artificial intelligence (AI) models. I assume that the reader is not an expert in machine learning and that like many, he or she has been “bombarded” by news about increasingly powerful and competitive models.
