BarcelonaMusic generated by artificial intelligence (AI) can be more emotionally arousing than music composed by humans. This is the conclusion of a study coordinated by a research group at the Autonomous University of Barcelona together with the RTVE Institute and the University of Ljubljana (Slovenia). AI and others, by humans–. The answer is surprising: AI achieved a higher level of emotional activation than music made by humans. analyzed three different sound conditions: music created by humans, music created by AI with simple guidelines, and music generated by AI with advanced guidelines. The study's principal investigator, Nikolaj Fišer, points out that the findings also suggest that the mental load is higher when trying to decode information generated by AI with simpler or more complex guidelines. Autonomous University of Barcelona, published in the magazine PLOS One, could mean a paradigm shift in music production for audiovisual content: if AI were to take charge of making it, it would save resources and, at the same time, adjust the emotional impact of the content more precisely.
