On June 1, 2016, Google launched the Magenta project, a research project that aims to allow the creation of art and music in an autonomous way through the use of AI. Based on the TensorFlow platform, Magenta aims to publish code in open source mode on GitHub to allow developers to achieve increasingly striking and advanced results.
The project is a brainchild of the Google Brain team, a deep learning AI research team at Google. It combines open-ended machine learning research with system engineering and Google-scale computing resources.
The Magenta project has set itself two ambitious goals: to develop machine learning for art and music, and to build a community of people interested in this topic. Machine learning has long been used in different contexts, in particular for speech recognition and translation of languages. Magenta was created to concentrate activity on...
