What you are proposing is how to compose a phrase with some suggestions for "auto-complete" from the AI. How it works will be very much dependent upon the training data and the "temperature" settings. You may also consider the rhythmic quality of the sound. Then there is the higher-level structure. How do multiple phrases fit together? What about transformations of the phrases, with inversions, transpositions, retrograde, etc.? The AI could make suggestions at that level too. > > > If this is correct, then few other follow up questions are: > > > 1.
