Artificial Intelligence is now being used to write songs in the style of Led Zeppelin

Feed enough data points into an AI algorithm and it can create a reasonable facsimile of the real thing. The Led Zepbot is the latest example of how the robots are coming for our music.

Funk Turkey (certainly one of the best YouTube handles) grabs lyrics from Lyric.rip and splices relevant pieces of music together using another algorithm called a Markov Chain. The result of this experiment was a track called “Mountain Man.”
