Beethoven died in 1827 with his 10th Symphony unfinished. Two centuries later, a team of scientists, composers, and an AI resurrected it — note by note.

Is it homage, forgery, or something entirely new?Keywords: Beethoven, AI Freaky Facts, AI music, artificial intelligence, unfinished symphony, Beethoven X, machine creativity, neural networks, classical music, deep learning, music technology, creative AI, Ahmed Elgammal, Walter Werzowa, Deutsche Telekom, AI composition, Generative Adversarial Network, Ethics and AIReferences:1.
