04: Text to Music: It is not that easy!

There are many AI models where you can enter text and generate songs. So words should describe the music you want to listen to in the end. But how does an artificial intelligence learn what music sounds like? Metadata must be associated with the songs so that descriptions are assigned. But that's not as easy for music as it is for images, for example. I talked about the difficulties with Paul Zgordan from Mubert and Roman Gebhardt from Cyanite.
