alt Hacker NewsI think it is totally reasonable to want something that plays all movements from one work, then finds similar works to play after that.
Sure, that might not be what a DJ algorithm is optimized for, but a more generalized AI like an llm should be able to figure that out.
You are very right, using a generalized LLM in combination with good music search and metadata tools works very well for this sort of thing. I know because I built a platform that does this. The big limiter isn't the tech, it's what the rights-holders will allow. They maintain tight control over their catalogs because renting that intellectual property is their entire business model. This makes them very cautious about letting any actually useful AI near their music and metadata.
