In today's video, we're going to be discussing the question: will AI ever be able to improvise jazz solos like a human? First, let's define what we mean by "improvising a jazz solo." In jazz music, improvising a solo means creating a unique and spontaneous musical performance on the spot, often in response to the other musicians in the group and the overall structure of the song. It requires a deep understanding of the language of jazz, as well as the ability to think creatively and express oneself musically in the moment. Now, AI has come a long way in terms of its ability to analyze and understand music. There are AI programs that can generate original melodies, harmonies, and even entire songs. But when it comes to improvising a jazz solo, there are a few key reasons why AI will likely never be able to fully match the level of creativity and expression that a human musician can bring to the table. First, jazz is a highly expressive and emotional art form. It requires a deep understanding of the subtleties of human emotion and the ability to convey those emotions through music. AI may be able to analyze and understand emotional content in music, but it doesn't have the ability to truly feel or experience emotion in the same way that a human does. This means that an AI-generated jazz solo may lack the emotional depth and authenticity that are essential to the art form. Second, jazz is a collaborative and interactive art form. It requires the ability to respond and interact with other musicians in real-time, and to shape the direction of the music based on those interactions. AI programs may be able to analyze and understand musical patterns and structures, but they don't have the ability to fully engage in the give-and-take of musical conversation and communication that is essential to jazz. Finally, jazz requires a deep understanding of musical history and tradition. It builds upon the contributions of past musicians and constantly pushes the boundaries of what is possible within the art form. AI programs may be able to analyze and understand musical patterns and structures, but they don't have the ability to truly appreciate and understand the cultural and historical context of jazz in the same way that a human musician does. So, to sum it up, while AI has made impressive strides in the realm of music, it is unlikely that it will ever be able to fully replicate the creativity, emotional depth, and interactive nature of jazz improvisation. Jazz remains a uniquely human art form, and we can't wait to see what the next generation of human musicians will bring to the table. Thanks for watching!

In this week's video I take you with me to several different concerts I attended last year by some of my favorite saxophonists. As an extra bonus, I managed to get these artists to share with us some of their valuable insights on how they got so good at music.

If I were to start all over learning to improvise from square 1 today, this is what I would do. There are a lot of traps people fall into on this journey and a lot of dead ends we typically go down that make the process take a lot longer, lead to a lot of frustration and sometimes make people give up all together. But if you follow 7 part framework I’m about to share with you, you should be able to reduce the amount of time it takes to learn to improvise and get a lot more enjoyment out of the process.

My guest today is the world renowned pianist, educator, composer and author Kenny Werner. His landmark book Effortless Mastery has been revelatory for musicians around the world since it was published more than 25 years ago.
