Music generation models can produce high-fidelity coherent accompaniment given complete audio input, but are limited to editing and loop-based workflows. We study real-time audio-to-audio accompaniment: as a model hears an input audio…

How do we measure genuine understanding in artificial cognitive systems? Current approaches face a measurement gap: probabilistic systems refine confidence gradually, practice-based systems compile knowledge through repeated execution, and…
