Making a Raspberry Pi-powered AI to play piano

I was inspired by Dan Tepfer's piano worlds to explore my own universe of augmented piano playing. Could I write an artificial intelligence that learns piano in real-time and can then improvise with my style in the music breaks between my own playing?

My favorite code

In most cases, code is a tool. Sometimes its hard to remember that. Sometimes code is a tool to help you code, but in the best case code bridges something in reality to enhance it.
