Product idea: Train a big neural net to be a DJ for conversations. Collect a dataset of movie scripts with soundtracks and plot summaries (timestamped so you know what theme or song was playing when) and then train a model with access to a vast library of soundtracks and other media to select the appropriate track for a given conversation. (Alternatively, have it create the music from scratch. That sounds harder though.)
When fully trained, hopefully you’ll be able to make apps like “Alexa, listen to our conversation and play appropriate music” and “type “Maestro:Soundtrack” into a chat or email thread & it’ll read the last 1024 tokens of context and then serve up an appropriate song. Of course it could do things like lowering the volume when people are talking and then cranking it up when there’s a pause or when someone says something dramatic.
I would be surprised if this would actually work as well as I hope. But it might work well enough to be pretty funny.
Glad you like it! Hmm, should I maybe post this somewhere in case someone with the relevant skills is looking for ideas? idk what the etiquette is for this sort of thing, maybe ideas are cheap.

This is an awesome idea.
