In the meantime I have relaxed a bit. First of all, machines are far from competing with human imagination.

Artificial intelligence is not yet able to listen to music, it can only create it.

It cannot connect with the sounds it produces. It knows no pain, no disappointment, no happiness.

When we listen to Beethoven’s Ninth, we hear not only notes or melodies, but also the desperation of an ageing genius who has gone deaf, and the end of a rich life that reaches up to heaven one last time in a gigantic effort of will.
