Apple Acquires Start- Up 'AI Music'

Reports suggest that Apple Inc. acquired start-up, AI music, which uses artificial intelligence to generate tailor made music.
The purchase of AI Music, a London-based business founded in 2016, was done few weeks back and it had about two dozen employees before the deal.
Technology developed by AI Music is said to create soundtracks using royalty-free music and artificial intelligence, according to a copy of its now-defunct website. The plan is to generate dynamic soundtracks that change based on user interaction. For instance, a song in a video game could change to fit the mood, or music during a workout could adapt to the user’s intensity.
According to AI Music, its goal is to give consumers the power to choose the music they want, by effortlessly editing to fit their needs or create dynamic solutions that adapt to fit their audiences. The start-up had earlier deals with advertising companies to create more engaging ads that played different music depending on the audience.
