AI will draft choreography someday, but teaching a song's signature move with your own body and tailoring it to each dancer stays in the studio; AI is a tool.

AI impact · AI-assistedChoreographer: what AI changes and what stays
AI that can sketch a rough dance sequence is coming, but that's a draft, not a finished routine. Inventing the movement that becomes a song's signature, teaching it body to body in the studio, and adjusting it to each dancer's strengths stays a choreographer's craft — AI is a tool here, not a replacement.
What could AI eventually do in choreography?
Software that can generate a rough sequence of movement from a piece of music is coming, and it could plausibly become a useful starting draft for a choreographer to react to. That's a genuinely new tool, but a rough machine-generated sequence is a long way from a finished, performance-ready routine.
Why does teaching choreography still happen body to body?
Inventing the specific movement that ends up defining a song, then physically teaching it in the studio and adjusting it to fit what each individual dancer's body actually does well, all depend on a choreographer's own physical presence and judgment. No draft sequence a program generates arrives already tailored to the specific people who have to perform it.
How should a choreographer think about using AI tools?
Treating an AI-generated sequence as a rough starting point to react to and rebuild, rather than a finished product, is the useful way to bring the tool into a real process. A dance background remains the core training either way, and the actual craft worth protecting is the in-studio teaching and adjusting that no draft can replace.
