I'd say ask it for a melody and chords separately and try to improvise over what it returns. ChatGPT is, IMHO, a nice tool to get inspiration if you're stuck, but it can not, for the foreseeable future, replace coders, musicians, or ANY actual profession. But if you take everything that ChatGPT throws at you with a grain of salt then it MIGHT help you to break a creative block. Everything else is hyperbole or a gross overestimation of its abilities.

If you're in a TL:DR mode just skip to the bottom paragraph, for my suggestion. If you want to hear my reasoning, as an electrical engineer with interest in the field, read on. The AIs outputs here, to me, seem a bit like it looked up everything that fit your requirements and just kind of mashed up known songs and styles within Jazz to write this first piece. I get the same feeling with most all of the art, etc that I see from AI, as well. When you look at human artists you can usually see that they are trying to evoke or convey something, and usually something at least somewhat original, sometimes VERY original, a whole new style or genre of art. Every time I hear one of these my thought is "OK', or "Uh huh" or some other totally "not impressed" in-head response. I do that with a fair bit of human written stuff too, though, as a lot of it too, is crap to my ear. More on that later, in the penultimate paragraph. Bored yet? :-) When I hear conversations with AI, I find the AI responses to be totally bland, there is never any spark of insight or creation, it is just plain dull. I would walk away, politely, from someone giving me responses like that very quickly. I would consider them a dullard. You can quickly tell when you make some statements with an intelligent person, as the conversation evolves with interesting twists and turns, and thoughts tend to expand, non linearly, often doubling back to the original thread. With AI, you ask it a question, it gives you a dead dull answer, and then it either asks some dead dull question, often that has little real relation to the thread of the conversation, or asks some open ended crap question like "what is the meaning of life". Yeah, great. That conversation the guy from Google published, to demonstrate AI sentience, didn't even demonstrate AI stupidity, as far as I was concerned. And when you structure questions and thoughts in certain ways the AI just becomes TOTALLY stumped, and goes not only stupid, but randomly stupid. AIs tend to do really well on trivia type shows, UNTIL you design the questions so it very much does not. Then even young human contestants can demolish the thing. So far I am very impressed with things like 'AI' driving and other specific tasks, some of them, but a super brain, nope, not remotely yet. Is a super brain possible, or even probable if research and design continues. IMO, almost certainly. The conversation, or music, or art at that point that it produces will be VERY different. It will write an "Uptown Funk", or "Take 5", or Brahms Requiem, or whatever, occasionally. Right now, it NEVER does. It never even enters the planet, let alone the ballpark. I guess I would have to do a blind AB to see if that is really true. That might be a good video. Find some good not widely known music, then have the AI write some, and without saying which is which play the two, and let us guess. What do you think?

Ultimately one of the cool parts about using the tool is that you can take the thoughts that are in your brain and put them down on paper and it'll operate as a great "friend"' that you can bounce ideas off of.

The generated music is definitely coherent and sometimes pleasing, it's clear that GPT has a good understanding of music. However, it's also important to remember that while GPT can help with inspiration and generate starting points, it still lacks the creativity and human touch that a human musician would bring to a piece of music. I look forward to seeing further developments in this area and how it can be integrated with human musicians in the future. Keep up the great work!

I think what happened with the F-Dm7-G7-Cmaj7 progression it gave was a problem with its training (as most of these problems are). It is only very familiar with a ii-V-I in C, since that's the most common key to learn these things on Google (the source of its training). So it gave you a simple progression (ii-V-I in C), and *then* took your request to be in F as "being in the key of F simply means you start on F 😃" and just gave you F plus a ii-V-I in C. I really doubt it was going for a vi-ii-V-I, especially considering the preface it gave you about non-extended ii-V-I's. This kind of issue is really common, I've found. It finds one part of what you want separately from another part, so you end up not having your requests merge together as you intended.

Great experiment, Charles, I'm also obsessing over GPT! But I think you missed GPT's confussion in your jazz question. GPT correctly identified the most common progression in jazz (II/V/I) and it provided two correct examples: one landing in Cmaj7 and one in Gmaj7. The problem appeared when it tried to generate chord progressions “in F”. Instead of transposing, GPT simply added an F chord ahead of each example, resulting in the bizarre F + Dm|G7|C and F + Abm|Db|Gb. The final answer is harmonically wrong, of course, and it doesn't look like a human mistake. But it isn’t 100% misled nor random either. It actually makes sense if you think about it in terms of statistical linguistics, which is how GPT works: in actual speech, the linguistic context of expressions like “progression in F”, “progression starting with F” and “progression in the key of F” is highly overlapping, so GPT's confusion isn't surprising… To get a better answer, you can reply: “Your examples include correct II/V/I progressions, which are indeed common in jazz, but they are not in the key of F. Try again and make sure the chord progression starts and lands in F.” In any case, GPT is evidently self-correcting quite fast - probably learning from its massive usage. I've just asked it the same question after watching your video, and the answers I received are already more concrete and relevant: Me: "Write a jazz chord progression in F major." GPT: "Fmaj7, Bb7, C7, Fmaj7" - that’s a very boring I/IV/V/I, but it is correct and it is in F. Me: Make it more interesting. GPT: "Fmaj7, Ab7, Db7, Gbmaj7, C7, Fmaj7" - this one looks pretty much like the second one you got, but now GPT introduced a dominant C7 at the end to effectively land in F!

For a darker temporary feel you could change the end of the chorus to a Ddim or Ddim7. That can potentially lead to all three of the starting chords: C# (well at least C#min), Eb, and Ab. But this is all theoretically without access to my instrument.

I ran a similar experiment with different styles of Blues, from Ragtime to Delta to Chicago. The only one it even came close to doing properly was, unsurprisingly, the simplest form - Chicago style blues. But even there it never made a bridge correctly. Always issues like this, mislabeled major/minor and/or very bad key changes.

So this is the perfect example of how an AI can be used to help us on a daily basis. Think of all the people that have blockaeds due to the preasure to deliver something in their jobs for example and are stuck in their minds. An AI being able to help you out of your blockades can save or at least change lives.

Seems to me that the reason the first progression sounds like a IV-V-vi is that the chord on the 2º degree (Bb) is major instead of minor as it "should" be. So instead of a I-ii-iii, you get a I-II-iii. The pattern of maj-maj-min suggests IV-V-vi. And I think the reason it made the II major is because your question immediately beforehand was about the Dorian mode which would, in a way, produce just that. If you were writing in A Dorian, f.ex, you would have Cmaj-Dmaj-Emin, with a major II instead of a minor ii.

To me, that first bridge isn’t in the key of C#, it’s still in Eb major but it sidesteps into Eb minor with the bVII (C#, or more correctly Db) and the bIII (F# or Gb). If you make the Eb in the bridge minor, then it’s just moving to the parallel minor. That’s how I hear it, anyway.

The second jazz chord progression it gave was basically the first where the 6-2-5 were their ‘tri-tone’ alternatives (go up/down by 6 semi tones). This is a common jazz ‘trick’ to spice chord progressions up. For example if you had a simple 1-6-2-5 chord progression in F (just bass notes omitting harmonies): F-D-G-C, a common twist would be to go through F#/Gb between C back to F because F#/Gb is the tri-tone alternative to C so: F-D-G-C Gb-F. I quite liked the pop chord progression it came up with!

I recognize the Ab -> Db -> Gb as a tritone substitution. The third of C7 == E and the seventh == Bb. Go up a tritone from C and you're at Gb7. The third of Gb7 == Bb, the seventh == Fb (aka E). So, whenever you see a V7 chord in jazz you can substitute it for its tritone twin and the third and seventh notes don't change. This particular example gives the substituted chord a little bit of a run-up with the Ab and Db chords, them being ii -> V in the key of Gb. Great content. Subscribing.

At 3:45 the 2nd verse could start with an Fm, then Bb, Cm, and Ab - actually all verses could start with an Fm. Also, in the bridge after C# and D# I would have been expecting (had I not seen the chords) an E#m (and then we're in the key of 8#). There the F# sounds like a subtonic.

Do you think the algorithm understood “bridge that modulates up a minor third” from the perspective of the bridge needs to contain a modulation of a minor third and wasn’t think of it as a typical modulation that would happen at the start of the bridge? Couldn’t one argue that the movement in the middle of the bridge chord progression, from D# to F#, is the minor third modulation that fits the original prompt? Considering that D# and F# are not diatonic to each other and their roots are a minor third apart

Not to pick nits, but Ab to B is an augmented 2nd, not a minor 3rd. Ab to Cb is a minor 3rd. Enharmonically equivalent, but still. ;) And a better way to get from the Ab in the original chorus to the Ab in the verse might be a secondary dominant (V7 of I). The 2nd jazz progression is kinda cool, the ii-V-i of the tritone substitution of the V chord. The Gbmaj7 resolving down to F is nice, as that flat-2 tritone sub always is.
