AI Tools

Writing & Coding

Most of these tools can write content in human or computer programming languages in response to natural language queries. These can be used as research tools in addition to generating content and/or code for review. Some tools, including ChatGPT, can also generate musical chord sequences but do not play them. See Fine Arts for tools that both generate and play musical structures.
