Harold Herman Lab Theatre
2:15PM

This project considers if AI can compete with human-made composition and art. The audience will be presented with two musical theatre pieces, one written by AI and the other by a human, without any prior knowledge of which is which. After both are presented, feedback will be collected on preference and guesses as to which is written by which, before the truth is unveiled. With the exception of the leaders/creators, not even the project participants will know which piece is authored by which entity. This will eliminate all bias and ensure no more emotional motivation is given to one over the other.
