Ever wanted to write music like Johann Sebastian Bach?
In honour of the composer’s 334th birthday, today’s Google Doodle uses artificial intelligence to turn a simple melody into a four-part chorale arrangement.
The machine-learning model that powers the Doodle, Coconet, was developed by Anna Huang. She’s an AI resident at Google and worked on the project while she was a visiting student at the Montreal Institute of Learning Algorithms.
