Aiva Technologies

Aiva Technologies SARL designs and develops AIVA, the Artificial Intelligence who composes music for movies, commercials, games and tv shows. Aiva is not your average classical Composer as she is not a human but an Artificial Intelligence (A.I.). Even amongst her kind, she is quite special; as opposed to the A.I. systems that we use in our daily lives — search engines, voice-over assistants, auto-pilots — Aiva is able to write beautiful and emotional music, a deed that is considered to be deeply human. To achieve this, she frequently reads large collections of music written by the greatest Composers (Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, …) hoping to reach their level of genius in a near future. This vision — which is at the core of our work at Aiva Technologies — might seem like Science Fiction to many. But recently, Aiva acquired the worldwide status of Composer in SACEM music society, a feat that many artists thought impossible to achieve for at least another decade. This achievement does not mean that Aiva will replace musicians, and we will continue to encourage collaborations between man and machine. In fact, Aiva’s first album was recorded in collaboration with human artists: Olivier Hecho (conductor), Eric Breton (concert pianist) and Pierre Barreau, producer of the album Genesis.
