Music, language and artificial intelligence (AI) – three fascinating topics in which logic and creativity converge. We use language and music to express ourselves, but is this something exclusively human? Some AI models seem to “understand” what we say, and others even compose music similar to ours. How exactly does this work? In this blog, I share interesting insights about music, language and AI.
Music
Music has the power to affect our emotions. It can make us happy or sad. There is something in vibrations, beats and melodies that can touch us deeply.
At the same time, music is also based on mathematics. Duration, rhythm and intonation are measurable, and some chords always sound harmonious together. But to compose really good music, a creative mindset is indispensable. Is that something only humans can do?

Language
Language is a structured system and a means of communication. Through speech or signs (such as writing or sign language), we can convey a message and give meaning.
Today, we can also talk to AI through language, such as ChatGPT. AI can respond in human language because technologies such as ChatGPT predictively generate texts. But is this really communication if the other party does not really understand us?
AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence displayed by machines. For years we have been trying to get AI to learn human skills such as chess, writing and programming.
To some extent, AI is very impressive and helpful. In just a few seconds you are presented with an answer, a generated image or personalized advice. But where do we draw the line? And how can we use AI in an ethical way?
