Dunno about AI exactly, but the auto-mixing area is quite a popular
topic in academia. The AES workshop on intelligent music production
(http://www.aes-uk.org/forthcoming-meetings/wimp2/ - hosted by the group
I work in) covered some of this ground, to interesting but inconclusive
ends.

The SAFE plugins (http://www.semanticaudio.co.uk/) are related as well:
based on crowdsourced mappings between musical terminology and plugin
parameters, rather than on inputs from surrounding tracks, but the
mechanism is vaguely similar.

I'm working on a project about shared feature requisition from tracks at
the moment, though I don't know whether it would be directly applicable
to this sort of use.
