I'm pretty nonchalant with coworkers to begin with, when it comes to LLMs i sometimes am curious how well it can handle slang, and other times, since it's a program, am extremely rude. Their whole purpose is to handle natural language after all.
I've played music for twenty years and can't read sheet music to save my life. Pretty easy to learn the shapes and patterns on a keyboard or guitar without reading sheet music (easier on guitar) and i figure with drums like, while i might Google the chords of a song for guitar, I've never known any drummer that would learn a cover song via notation
Well i can tell you what i think: music isn't math and whoever told you that is wrong.
To further underline the point: entire cultures' musical traditions don't follow the circle of fifths, or notation as you're likely familiar with it, or even notes that follow the kinds of ratios you might use to describe western musical scales of any kind. The mathematical representations of western music were applied in retrospect, math never played any role in the development of western music anyway.
So considering math was never a factor in the development of western music and the math used to describe western music doesn't even apply universally, i just can't really consider "music is math" to be a meaningful statement at all
I thought "oh, I'll just click through to the original post and read it there" and wow, what a mistake. Just the most obnoxious slop-filled over-animated endlessly distracting claudesite I've ever seen in my life.
The live music image in their collage is hilarious: it's blurring the backs of people's heads, and presumably blurs the faces of the band, as how would it know the difference
Eta: and in their demo video there's a person walking by who's face doesn't get blurred lmao. Bang up job, Claude
