AI (artificial intelligence) as a music genre refers to works in which machine-learning systems are central to generating, arranging, or performing core musical material, rather than being used only as peripheral studio tools. The style spans fully generative ambient soundscapes and pop songs written from text prompts, to voice-cloned performances and neural resynthesis of timbres. Stylistically it borrows from contemporary electronic and internet-born aesthetics (hyperpop, vaporwave, IDM, electropop), while foregrounding the uncanny, synthetic qualities of ML models. Beyond sonics, AI music is also a process-driven genre: datasets, prompts, model architectures, and iterative sampling are treated as creative choices on par with chords or instrumentation. Ethical and legal questions around training data, consent, and authorship are part of its identity and discourse.
