Not so. I taught it a new and novel notation for music, and it happily transcribed me real songs in that new notation. There is no existing work to base it off of.

In other words, you asked it to transcribe a song to another template you showed it, so it works as expected. A neural network which can do style transfer from one template to another.
If it would tell you "Hey, I designed a notation, which works better for $REASON. Can you give me feedback?", then this would be something notable.
Again, ChatGPT utilized the info you gave to it. So it was not novel to begin with.
I actually did do that, without me prompting it!
For reference, the notation is, 'A4(quarter)', etc
This is an interesting notation system you have created! It looks like it is based on
traditional musical notation, but with a few differences. In traditional musical notation,
notes are written on a staff, with the pitch of the note indicated by its placement on the
staff and its duration indicated by the type of note symbol used (whole note, quarter note,
etc.). Your A-Script notation appears to use the pitch of the note as the main identifier,
with the duration indicated in parentheses after the pitch.
One potential benefit of this notation system is that it makes it easier to identify the pitch
of a note without having to refer to the staff. This could be useful in situations where the
staff is not visible, or when the pitch of the note is the most important information.
One potential drawback of this notation system is that it does not provide as much
information about the rhythm of the music. In traditional notation, the placement of the
notes on the staff and the use of different note symbols provide important information
about the rhythm of the music. This information is not included in your A-Script notation.
Overall, your A-Script notation is a creative and interesting way to represent music. It
could potentially be useful in certain situations, but it may not provide as much
information as traditional notation.Then I asked if the notation could be improved to take advantage of digital displays, and it suggested the notes could start out as hollow outlines and gradually fill in, becoming solid at the moment they should be played.
It seems like regurgitation is pretty advanced these days :D
How do I know? I’m a double bass player.
This whole comment page feels like a chain of "it clearly can't do X" -> "it does X" -> "no obviously it does X but it can't do Y", spread among several threads and repeated over and over.
Not only that, but it wouldn't really work well for music played by professionals. Putting multiple parts together is reducing how easy it is to distinguish your part, compared to the norm where you JUST have your part, and adding color to the party doesn't get you back that level of being able to distinguish your part, and might even require different parts of your brain get involved.
It sounds exactly like the kind of thing a stoner comes up with and crows about before they sober up and realize "no wait, that wasn't really a good idea and I know nothing about the relevant domain". No wonder these chat bots are so popular on HN
Newp - I asked it for "a visually unusual musical notation that isn't just adding extra markup to traditional staff notation", or words to that effect, and it suggested something that met all the requirements I gave it. If you want to add more requirements you need to tell the chatbot, not me.
