Many thanks @medialab for sharing this interview with @CMA_Tweets on AI+Music. It is such a pleasure doing exploring this field and making experiments with the Media Lab community and with @operafuture. Things are moving so fast; all (musical) hands on deck!

[Tod Machover @todopera]

Such a pleasure to do this interview on AI and music with you, @schmidr17! Thanks for taking the time to chat and to talk together about these huge changes which are coming to music, ones that all of us need to shape for a positive, productive, human-centered outcome.
