the future of music listening (according to Apple)

From Gizmodo:

Apple's Newest Acquisition Could Mean Changes for Apple Music

The tech giant just bought a startup that uses AI to transform songs.

From the article ...

the startup is “shape-changing” music to shift the way songs are consumed rather than generating music from scratch. One method would be to increase the tempo of a song when someone is running or to slow it down when they are walking. In more advanced applications, the AI could take an existing song, transform it, then let you swipe left or right to hear a different version. This presumably means you could take a song from a genre you don’t listen to and use AI to make it fit your preferences.

Interesting shift in music consumption as the artists (and recording engineers I suppose) start to share the "creation" of music with the listener via AI-driven technologies.

They will end up inventing the Cumbia Rebajada...

It's an interesting way to draw users to Apple music. Not sure what to think of it though. Aren't they capable of attracting users in other ways anymore?
