Artificial intelligence (AI) researchers at Google Magenta, a part of Google Brain, have developed NSynth, an AI system that has learned how to mimic the sounds of 1,000 different instruments and can use them to create entirely new sounds. The team created their first version in 2015 using only one instrument, but they were able to improve it by adding more instruments, including drums, violins, guitars, ukuleles, flutes, clarinets, trumpets, trombones, saxophones, keyboards, and more. The team has also created a new playground for AI researchers and other computer scientists. The team hopes it will be used to help make music and other forms of art.
