Composer Kim Do-il, who has produced thousands of songs for 44 years, won the AI composer Evom (EVOM) by composing a “telepathy” that made use of the rough and savory taste of trot in “The Confrontation of the Century AI vs. Humans”. The reason for the defeat of AI is considered to be the’lack of data’ of Samba Trot, which belongs to the minor genre in the trot field.
SBS New Year special aired on the 14th
On the day of the recording, new songs such as’Telepathy’ and’Love is 24 Hours’ were introduced. Songs composed by AI and humans respectively were sung by active trot singers, and the panel’s sharp predictions began. Lyricist Kim Na and Professor Sang-wook Kim (physicist) predicted that’telepathy’ is a human-created song and’Love is 24 Hours’ is an AI work, and they were correct. ‘Love is 24 Hours’ was a song composed by AI.
‘Telepathy’ showed a crude but affectionate melody. On the other hand,’Love is 24 Hours’ showed a contrasting look with a neat and refined melody that is difficult to encounter in the existing trot. The final choice was left to the judgment of the singer, the singer. Singer Hong Jin-young, who sang two songs, chose’Telepathy’, and AI was defeated by human victory in the confrontation.
However, it does not matter who won the AI composition with humans in that subjective judgment determines the victory or defeat of the confrontation. This is because it can change according to people’s taste. Although AI could not beat the traditional trot composer, it is highly noteworthy in that it actively reflected the latest trend of music.
◇ One song in 10 seconds, AI’Bom Lee’ vs. Song composer Kim Do-il in 3 minutes
Composing AI Bom Lee (EVOM), introduced in the broadcast, did not simply study and imitate existing songs, but instead learned by formulating music theory. The system name was changed to a number so that the AI recognized it, and code learning was also entered. The music theory that humans will learn in one year has been learned in one month. An AI that judges, corrects, and develops itself can compose one trot in 10 seconds. In addition, in the case of problems found in the process, humans (developers) judged and reflected feedback to AI to enhance completion.
Bom Lee was developed at CreativeMind, an AI music startup led by Professor Ahn Chang-wook of GIST’s AI Graduate School. Various genres of music such as classical music, K-pop, and EDM New Age were presented. Last year, it became a hot topic by debuting a new singer for the first time in Korea. Bom Lee is the first AI composer in Korea and is continuing his unrivaled moves.
Kim Do-il, who confronted AI, has produced numerous famous songs such as’Borit Pass’ with his 44 years of music career. entertainment show <놀면 뭐하니?>He created a variety of trot songs that gave him the nickname’Self-going vending machine, 3 minutes composer’, who made an eye stamp to viewers through the program. The process of making songs was not very different from those of existing composers. In the studio, he played with the keyboard and guitar and made several corrections, showing that he devoted himself to creation.
◇ Why was AI composer defeated?
The reason for losing AI in the confrontation between AI composers and humans is the lack of data in Samba trot songs. AI learned 10 hours per day for 100 days and wrote an average of 500 songs per day. However, the number of samba trot songs was relatively small for AI, who had to learn hundreds of thousands of data.
It is said that securing a large amount of data is the most important for AI to demonstrate its capabilities. Professor Ahn Chang-wook said, “There are few samba trot songs,” and “I needed hundreds of thousands of data, but the amount was insufficient.” Conversely, if only a large amount of data was secured, this result could have been different.
This competition between AI and human composition shows that in the future, anyone can use AI technology to create new songs. In addition, it showed well that in the field of’creation’, he has the ability to be comparable to humans. Now it is up to humans how to use it well. Professor Kim Sang-wook said, “It is still up to humans to pioneer a new type of trend like Seo Taiji’s I know.”
As Professor Kim said, it is still up to humans to pioneer new types of trends, but if AI is used as a complementary tool, a newer form of art will be born. A total of 5 times

The confrontation between AI composer Bom Lee and human composer Do-il Kim unfolded. Even in the art of being human’s own domain, AI is making remarkable achievements. What are some of the problems we need to ponder in the AI versus human compositional competition? I recommend watching the showdown program while guessing what kind of relationship AI composers will have with our future lives.
