This is awesome! I started experimenting with LLMs and Ableton over the break too. I used a few off the shelf VST templates to create a VST that leverages an LLM that can create LilyPond format music. This creates multi track VST output

Conspiracy theories coming true are going gangbusters as of late. Maybe they should be re-labeled "narratives that while they are true might disrupt the current power structures so we will paint anyone who believes them as a loon.&quo

If you're hesitating to use YJS take the word of someone who took the plunge, it's totally worth it on the other side. I've written several apps now with it now. Very easy to use and quite robust to failures. It's a bi
