The WAIC YOUNG LIVE Night, featuring the WAIC YOUNG Music Creation Competition's youth AI music showcase, was held at VAS Shanghai.
The event marked the debut of WAVE, the digital stage host for WAIC YOUNG LIVE Night. As an AI digital stage persona, WAVE connected stage audio, youth creations, and live audience interaction through digital visuals.
The showcase unfolded across three thematic chapters: "Universe·Starry River Heatwave," "Homeland·Poetic Hometown," and "Future·Sound (Shen) Wave Across the Shore." It featured works such as "Starry River Pulse," "Pixel Big Bang," "The First Ignition of the Star Sea," and "Hear the Light," using music, stage visuals, and AI technology to present young creators' explorations of technology, art, and the future.
This event is noted as the first youth-focused AI music showcase at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference. The performance integrated AI music creation, digital visuals, and live performance, presenting original musical works completed jointly by young creators and AI.
This year's WAIC YOUNG AIGC Music Creation Competition attracted participation from 3,126 teams. Following stages of submission, judging, online exhibition, and final evaluation, a selection of music pieces created collaboratively by youth and AI progressed from the competition to the live stage. Organizers stated the event aimed to demonstrate new applications of AI in music creation, enabling young people to fully engage in the AI-assisted creative process—from prompt experimentation and melody composition to final stage presentation.
