Will machine learning outperform human curation in Apple Music? (backchannel.com)

Interesting, and with everything machine learning has been able to do so far, I guess I shouldn't be surprised if machine learning did surpass humans in curating music. But would the machine learning based curation ever present music that's innovative or "different"? I'm curious whether the curation would only present music that meets a certain criteria. And perhaps that's what it'll come down to, and maybe the algorithms will know which set of criteria best align with society at the moment and will choose music that way.
