I think nothing will happen of note. A machine can simulate based on a calculation of style — what does all Beethoven music stylistically have in common that makes it sound like Beethoven — but then it’s just something that is watered down, the common denominator derivative from many sources. There is no inspiration that sees the greatness of an idea. There is no creative impulse; no excitement that discriminates between good ideas and great ideas. There is nothing of Beethoven’s heart and soul in the music. And you need heart and soul to make great music.

Bingo. That’s why “AI” will never really be “intelligent” as far as I’m concerned. There are aspects to our intelligence that require a soul, and that’s something we cannot ever program.
