I use chat.openai.com quite a bit for LilyPond. It almost never gives a correct or directly useful answer, but often gives me ideas where I can continue with LilyPond docs to figure out a solution. It's definitely good at explaining how code fragments work if you paste them in. This is a very s

Hi Saul, A practical follow up question: what is currently the largest repertoire of publicly available Lilypond scores? Ideally, something like the complete Bach chorales or Mozart piano sonatas. Mutopia? Kieren.

I think you may have that impression based on GPT3.5. GPT4 is already being used to generate working non-trivial computer programs based only on a brief text description. On Wed, Mar 29, 2023 at 3:58 PM Alexandre Loomis wrote: > > given some of the other impressive things it can do > > I think t

For some real fun i asked it to generate code that a potential solution would be recursive (without suggesting a recursive solution). The first time I stumped it and it went off for two hours. I asked it again later and it camenback with an interative solution without getting stuck . But i found th

HI Saul; I asked ChatGPT to write some ABC notation. The result was...'okay'. I then asked for a very simple arrangement of some children's tune and it got very confused about relative pitches. Since the rhythm for the piece of music I requested was so simple it didn't have a problem genera

Hah yes. It once said \begn{music} and i said "are you making this up?" "I'm sorry, you're correct. The start tag should be \begin{lilypond}. Its super handy but you have to watch it. It can be a pathological liar. I asked it how to do something on the Akai Mini Play and it said to use this button
