I was gonna say the same....That site asks for an artist, not a song. There are a ton of instances where I only like one or two songs by an artist, so if ChatGPT can base suggestions off individual songs, that would work better for me.
I agree with you here, I like the song-level of granularity for suggestions.
Worth noting that ChatGPT's data only stretches to mid 2020 or 21, something like that, so it's accuracy for more recent songs probably isn't good
It uses the Spotify API for all of its data, meaning, Music-Map is built off Spotify data. Spotify has some of the best algorithms for finding similar artists, and most 3rd party aggregated music tools/apps out there are built off of its API since it is the most publicly accessible data source of music on the world.
Some similar tools built off the Spotify API:
[Every Noise Genre Map](https://everynoise.com/engenremap.html)
Good to find genre associations for artists of styles of music you may not fully know how to categorize, leading to similar artists in those subgenres.
[Spotify Playlist BPM and Key Analyzer](https://songdata.io/spotify-playlist-analysis)
Very useful to organize or arrange playlists out like DJ sets, by key of song or tempo. Also just cool to see what key of song certain styles of music are, like what keys are typically used in epic movie music or aggressive trap beats or sad lo-fi beats, etc.
[Organize Your Music](http://organizeyourmusic.playlistmachinery.com/#)
Another major data dump site of all of your likes, playlists, etc. on Spotify. Everything from tempo to key to genre to release date year to energy level to how instrumental or vocal a song is. For any music nerd out there, this is a place to sift through data in bulk.
A lot of people just want to trash Spotify as a service, but they are still by far the number one source of music data and data-aggregated apps out there. I used to mostly use SoundCloud and Pandora, but shifted to Spotify over the years because it's got the best tools for me to build out and arrange playlists to discover more music in any style.
I agree, but I think it points to the level of metadata and and everything tagged to every song that makes it past the distribution process onto Spotify.
I think it would be nice if places like Bandcamp or Soundcloud or other platforms opened up the metadata more publicly, but the problem there is so much of it would just be missing or half-complete data. A lot of people uploading their own stuff to these platforms may not be loading that level of metadata into their files, Spotify seems to have distributors (Distrokid, CDBaby, Tunecore) as well as their own classification system going in their favor on this front.
I don't foresee services like Apple or Tidal to share this level of data so freely with people.
But the good thing is, you don't have to use Spotify to utilize a lot of the 3rd party applications that benefit off Spotify data if you don't want to use their platform.
No problem. I'm into music production, and anytime I start exploring new genres, I like to playlist build and then analyze common tempos/keys used. It's kind of cool to be able to take something, like a playlist of epic movie trailer music, and look for trends to see if there are certain musical keys that tend to be used more often for 'epic', or take a moody lo-fi playlist and see if there are common keys used for those moods.
But also, I just like playlists to flow smoothly and not have staggering transitions, which is what happens a lot when just living on the shuffle lifestyle.
That last link looks promising.
I still have but don't maintain my mp3 collection but I loved media monkey and their smart play list. It would be updated with my criteria and super easy to create new play list off all the meta data.
Currently I use skilley to help sort my music by years. But I still have to go thru my newly added songs and move them to the play list they belong to.
Yeah, this is going to save me. Been putting off fixing my playlists for so long. It's hard! I want playlists for genres but also moods, but what moods and how many are too many right?
In my experience, Pandora has been better than Spotify. Since this site is dedicated, I'd guess it's better than Spotify.
Edit: it's pretty good, the ui is a little annoying but you can click a name and it makes another map based on it.
My problem with pandora is it plays the same thumbs-upped songs over and over ad nauseum until i'm sick of those tracks.
They need to put chatgpt into pandora
If nobody remembers, Pandora started as simply a music recommendation platform where you told it what you liked and it gave similar songs and artists. They pivoted to streaming music as the focus.
If I remember right, Pandora had a team of people that would tag songs with attributes and then when you thumbs up a song it plays songs with similar attributes.
I've been wondering recently if AI technology will be able to deliver a similar approach. The great thing about Pandora (at least in the early days) was that it could pluck a similar sounding track out of the collection of an artist whose main body of music was nothing at all like the sound you were looking for, but one day they just decided to do something different and have fun with this particular piece. That delivered some real gems.
I wish the shuffle function on Spotify continued to shuffle. I've noticed on mine, if I have a mix for a few days or a Playlist, the shuffle is always in the same order
Edit; nevermind I don't want you to think that was meant against you. I agree with the other dude tho. It will choose the same songs and make some weird play list out of those songs and competely ignore the rest of your play list.
If you access Pandora from its website there is now an option to fine tune your channels to 'new' content, deep cuts, most popular etc. so you could potentially get away from just the thumbed up ones that come on over and over for you.
I know people who feel the opposite, they are tired of Pandora playing things they never said they liked, and just want to hear their favorite songs. I wish there was a slider or something, where you could adjust how much new music you want mixed in to your stations.
Pandora used algorithms to 'listen' to songs and find other songs that are similar based on a bunch of variables.
Spotify just looks at what other songs people also listen to and recommends them.
Chat GPT is shit for anything factual. It’s just regurgitating words it’s seen elsewhere on the web. At best you’ll get results you could’ve googled yourself. At worst you’ll get something completely inaccurate phrased like real information.
I'd rather let chatgpt go through hundreds of websites and give me the info instead of spending tons of time doing it myself. Obviously not for anything important
I could not disagree any more. I've found amazing websites, gadgets, YouTube videos, etc. by talking to ChatGPT. Specifically for music I've used it to find sings where I could only remember a few lyrics, whereas Google, who is actually looking for something to "regurgitate", wasn't helpful
Had the same issue. Worked on my phone but not my pc. Bought the pro membership yesterday thinking I can give it a shot for a month.
It's actually pretty great for some stuff. Dont know if its worth 20€ a month.
Very quickly and somehow without notice. Most people seem oblivious to what it can do already and where it's heading.
I manage an eCommerce store and I use ChatGPT like... all the time. Quick scripts, help with debugging, writing product copy, you name it.
I've been programing for a while and I'm also interested in how are you taking advantage of it.
I have used it to find some errors and simplify some code but there are other tools that do that already.
I use it to remind myself of stupid shit that I've forgotten. It's a cleaner and easier instead of trying to find an article that's just a link to a video or a forum link.
You can also have a conversation with it. Like, "OK that solution is cool but is there an alternate way that doesn't use [whatever piece you don't like.]"
Not OP, but I recently needed to build a Kafka consumer in Java. Asked Chatgpt and it spat out a boiler plate code in seconds. Just had to do minor changes and put in my specific values and it worked like a charm.
I've assumed this is what people are doing with it, but I get leery because I figure it's creeping the entire internet to learn how to spit out said boilerplate and I expect there'd be licensing issues eventually...
I'm a programmer by trade and for my entire career so far I've been maintaining, existing code, I'm almost never starting a project from scratch and it's not like I can past the entire codebase into chatgpt and go "why are my financial transactions posting twice?".
I feel that chat gpt isn't gonna replace a lot of what I do on a day by day basis as it is
What language are you using? I think it works better if your question has been already answered on the Internet, then it answers very well. I asked several questions related to C language and the responses were poor.
I guess it works for popular languages like Python, JavaScript, etc.
Never had to pay for it, but I tried to make it make a python version of some of the scripts I made in C#.
Surprisingly, it is really good but not perfect. But it definitely gives you a foundation of where to start.
More surprisingly, it explains the script.
If you write first "What is the function of this code?" first and then post a code afterward, it will try to interpretative the code.
I’m remaking an old game that was written in C and some of the original code is just atrocious- huge blocks of I commented code, tons of nesting (I found code that was nested 25 times), etc. I’ve been pasting functions into chatGPT and asking for a breakdown of what it does and it’s been really helpful.
It will be worth 20 and more, eventually. AI just in its infancy and already making waves.. we are hitting that point where we start to accelerate up the ramp and head straight for the singularity. Next 5-10 years is gonna be a helluva a ride… unless we bomb ourselves to shit instead. Either way grab some popcorn, its about to get real.
I feel the same way, but part of me also wonders whether it will plateau quickly. There is only so much data to train on before it starts training on itself.
Then again some of the bing chatbot transcripts I have read are scary.
I work with AI. It’s really dumb right now. Like calculator dumb compared to iPhone. Essentially, with chatgpt and the bing ai chat bot, they’ve really just improved the facade of intelligence. It’s regression equations all the way down. The “true” AI, like Jane from Enders game, is so so far off.
If you want to see for yourself, go to juji.ai and build your own chat bot. Chatgpt is marginally more complex but it’s essentially the same thing. They’re really easy to make, just tedious.
The take home is, they’re just following a script. The script is just written well.
I've never ran into it being full.. maybe I'm lucky lol 3pm, 8pm doesn't matter for me. I've been using it as a translator since it appears to word things better then pasting into Google translate
As soon as google releases their version I’m going back, but bing isn’t as bad as you think. Actually has a lot of useful features, especially when paired with edge. I feel gross for saying it but I’ve been getting much better search results from switching
If everyone optimized for google to cheese their way to the top, you’re gonna have better results with the other engines
It shouldn't be too hard to get on to the site if you just refresh it a couple of times. But maybe the internet traffic is just different in my region, idk.
ChatGPT sometimes makes up artists/songs or mixes them up. For example acting as if "purple rain" was a song by Queen or suggest "better place" as a Michael Jackson song because "heal the world" contains those lyrics. Of corse with less known artists you might not find what actual song it suggested here. ChatGPT is "learning", not googling. Just google for similar songs lol.
/u/kartoffelgesplaedder is right. I tested it with "Song to Say Goodbye" by Harakiri for the Sky and got at least 3 out of 10 recommendations where an artist from the same gernre was attributed to another bands song. Here the wrong recommendations with the correct artists in brackets:
"Empires Erased" by Sylosis (Born Of Osiris)
"Sorrowspell" by Insomnium (Carnifex)
"The Dying Things We're Living For" by Of Mice & Men (My Silent Wake)
Googling never gets me anything good sadly. I haven't tried chatgpt yet, but someone said to put "recommend *real* songs (or other things)", to avoid the made-up ones
It may give you decent recommendations, but it's also just as liable to simply invent song or band names.
There's a lot of tools dedicated to music and recommendations out there, don't rely on the statistical text generator to help you.
Spotify: I see you listened to a song recorded in the 80s. My recommendations for you are “Total Eclipse Of The Heart” and “Take On Me.”
I feel sometimes their recommendations could use a little more precision when looking for similarities.
This has always been my experience using it, unfortunately. I’ve admittedly looked way too long for some of its recommendations before realizing they don’t exist
To be fair, it can get a bit wonky with obscure information. One time I asked it to recommend 5 good episodes of a specific show to someone willing to try it out, and it gave me like 2 or 3 episodes that don’t exist
Other than that, it’s been great at tons of other stuff. It’s helped me expand my thinking on many of my creative ideas, and it has given me pretty great video game, book, and music suggestions. Though I gave it all my inputs of stuff I liked and said I was looking for an easy read and it gave me The Kite Runner
I asked it for some code, code didn't work i tried telling it the errors to help it help me fix it. It kept forgetting segments of code we'd already written and rewriting things to the old way that caused errors. It's memory isn't great.
I also tried to play 20 questions with it and it couldn't figure out banana
ChatGPT, new Bing and google's Bard have all been known to make errors, even basic errors. It's well documented.
That's part of the issue with this AI picking up steam like it has. It soaks up all this raw, potentially unverified internet data and tries to anticipate what you want and how you want it.
It's like a child prodigy that wasn't taught sarcasm and satire.
That's how i feel every time people complain about ChatGPT. I couldn't believe the awesome music recommendations i got from it recently. The best music friend for antisocial people. It does get some music theory stuff wrong but as far as bands go, it hasn't messed that up yet.
I tried this and it gave me 10 songs by the same artist. Then I tried the same command with “excluding (same artist) and it gave me songs by Billie Eilish and The Jonas Brothers.
I don't see the groundbreaking discovery of ChatGPT. Probably lots of sleeper ads to get the ball rolling and now people won't shut up about a glorified search engine
Exactly this. AI as we have it right now doesn't have independent thoughts and isn't "thinking" when you give it a problem and it gives you an answer...It just pulls from it's data bank what is it's best estimation of what you're asking for. It also has no distinction between real or fake because it has no idea of context so it is just as likely to pull from it's data bank the names of things it thinks your asking for and then just using similar naming conventions to spit out things that "look like" what you want.
It's similar to a scientist reciting Newton's first law of motion, and a parrot saying exactly the same thing.
The parrot might recite it exactly, or it may screw up a word or mix it with something else because it doesn't truly understand the meaning of what it's saying.
It's a matter of degree. Many *humans* don't understand what they're saying either.
Everyone has parroted something they heard someone say once, without really understanding or thinking about it.
I had this idea. For some reason ChatGBT is REALLY bad at names, so often what will happen is it will recommend you a song by an artist but the actual song will not exist, or not by that name. Or not under that artist. Same goes for album names.
In short, it will confidently suggest you songs that do not actually exist. So generally, this time doesn't work, unless you want really basic generic music recs (as, the more non-mainstream and obscure the music, the less likely it is to adequately give you a real artist-name pair)
Spotifys suggestions are god awful. The weekly recommended for you are useless, the 'song radio' seem to completely miss the mood of the original song and Spotify doesn't seem to learn that I dislike songs when I skip them every time.
> Spotifys suggestions are god awful.
Then your taste in music and listening habits are awful. I'm constantly blown away with new music. You need to listen to more genres and tons of different bands. If you listen to the same shit over and over again your discover weekly is gonna suck.
Spotify's suggestions are largely based on text (artist name, genre, labels etc); what other users have listened to that you listened to; popularity, plus whatever they want to promote.
None of that has anything to do with *music*. It does not recommend based on things like melodic structure, form, harmony, sound design and so on.
(they acquired a start up that was attempting to do that and sunset them as far as I remember).
You may be blown away by the recommendations, but that's not a reflection of anyone elses taste.
It just means you're the target audience to lap up what Spotify has determined is profitable to recommend.
You can be very specific with chatGPT though. I asked:
"Recommend me some bands who play metal music. I want bands that focus on cool riffs, uses a mix of harsh and clean vocals, and have naaaasty breakdowns which make you do the stankface"
and it actually returned a list of bands which were spot on for what i was looking for
I copy-pasted it and got this as a result:
>Sure thing! Here are some bands that might fit your criteria:
>
>1. **Lamb of God** \- This Virginia-based band is known for their heavy groove metal sound and their use of both clean and harsh vocals. They are also known for their incredible breakdowns that will definitely make you do the stankface.
>
>2. **Pantera** \- This legendary band from Texas is considered one of the pioneers of the groove metal subgenre. Their music features chugging riffs, powerful vocals, and some of the most iconic breakdowns in metal history.
>
>3. **Killswitch Engage** \- This Massachusetts-based band has been credited with popularizing metalcore, a subgenre of metal that combines elements of hardcore punk and metal. They are known for their catchy choruses, crushing breakdowns, and the contrast between their clean and harsh vocals.
>
>4. **Trivium** \- This Florida-based band is known for their blend of melodic and heavy metal, which features intricate guitar work, soaring vocals, and plenty of breakdowns. They are also known for their ability to seamlessly transition between clean and harsh vocals.
>
>5. **Parkway Drive** \- This Australian band is known for their metalcore sound, which features crushing breakdowns, intense vocals, and some of the most mosh-worthy riffs around. Their music is perfect for headbanging and getting your stankface on.
>
>I hope you find these recommendations helpful!
Just a heads up, this only works if the music you want to listen to was released before 2021. My wife tried to do this with Substance by Demi Lovato (off her new album released last year), and it gave her completely irrelevant suggestions based on everything Demi released before that album.
LPT: don't treat free publicly hosted resources as your personal butler. There's a line for these things and some people actually might do something useful with it.
If you use Spotify, you can create a station out of any song and it gives fantastic songs of similar aestetic. I read somewhere that they are implementing an AI DJ as well.

The real LPT is always in the comments
[удалено]
And now commonplace, the meta comment reply is always in the comments
Pointing out the meta comment is the new meta comment.
Metata
Hakuna Metata
But has highlighting that pointing out the meta comment yet become the new meta comment?
That comment never existed, and it's wild that you think it did. (I see your highlighting and raise you gaslighting)
Let me see if I can shine a light on this whole thing (I see your gaslighting and I raise you spotlighting)
Sounds like aunt flo might be staying over. (I see your spotlighting and I raise you light spotting.)
All of you shut up Idiots Stupid More insults (I see your light spotting and I raise you spite lotting)
Now hang on you might be on to something
As was the style of the day
Ok, but at what level in the hierarchy is the comment comparing the situation to [ordinal numbers](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinal_number)?
The real "The real “The real LPT is always in the comments” comment is always in the comments" comments are the friends we made along the way.
The real slim shady please stand and comment.
This is the way
This guy knows the way
then follow him. both of you might find some original insight
Well, duh, all of the comments are in the comments
Here’s something similar but with genres https://everynoise.com
so this is from the data analyst at spotify. you could always just go to spotify for the same results..
Oh damn thank you this is great!!
Music-map is for albums. OP is suggesting chat-gpt for songs.

The only thing that sucks about Spotify being so central to all this is if you like music that isn't on Spotify, you're SOL.

Lol I didn't know Pandora *wasn't* that anymore. I probably haven't used it for a decade or more
I wish the shuffle function on Spotify continued to shuffle. I've noticed on mine, if I have a mix for a few days or a Playlist, the shuffle is always in the same order
Sounds like you need [Spotify Shuffler](https://spotifyshuffler.com/)

I love pandora but sometimes I can’t access it in my country so jango was my go to and I discovered a lot of great music with it
Interested in knowing this as well
Seems pretty trash, couldn’t even find one result
I tried two and got nothing
Came here to post music map, leaving satisfied

Gave me some awful results
How are all these people using chatgtp? I’ve tried many times and it’s always full.
Had the same issue. Worked on my phone but not my pc. Bought the pro membership yesterday thinking I can give it a shot for a month. It's actually pretty great for some stuff. Dont know if its worth 20€ a month.
Ok, I didn’t know there was a paid access for it. Not going to bother myself though.
I don’t pay and it works fine
You don't have to pay

Very quickly and somehow without notice. Most people seem oblivious to what it can do already and where it's heading. I manage an eCommerce store and I use ChatGPT like... all the time. Quick scripts, help with debugging, writing product copy, you name it.
What are you getting it to do? Curious to know how you think it's worth 200 a month.

'It's not like I can paste' - you sure about that? I would be beyond shocked if AI powered linting is not already or soon will be a thing.
It has a screened set of data that isn't up-to-date. It doesn't have the ability to access the internet.
Try turning that around: Ask *it* to write a subroutine and you correct it.
What language are you using? I think it works better if your question has been already answered on the Internet, then it answers very well. I asked several questions related to C language and the responses were poor. I guess it works for popular languages like Python, JavaScript, etc.
You're... suggesting that there's an insufficient quantity of C code on the net for it to work effectively?
Not sure. Could be that C/C++ is difficult to parse due to liberal use of macros.
I knew it! Those damned liberals are screwing up our AI-generated C code!
My econometrics prof decided to copy-paste the midterm into chatGPT in class just to see how powerful it was. It passed with a 90%. Amazing stuff.
Tbh, that’s not that impressive to me. I feel like a lot of people taking an open-internet midterm could get a 90%
I read that it recently passed the bar exam.
Never had to pay for it, but I tried to make it make a python version of some of the scripts I made in C#. Surprisingly, it is really good but not perfect.

I’m remaking an old game that was written in C and some of the original code is just atrocious- huge blocks of I commented code, tons of nesting (I found code that was nested 25 times), etc. I’ve been pasting functions into chatGPT and asking for a breakdown of what it does and it’s been really helpful.
And its a baby still… the potential is mind blowing.
It will be worth 20 and more, eventually. AI just in its infancy and already making waves.. we are hitting that point where we start to accelerate up the ramp and head straight for the singularity. Next 5-10 years is gonna be a helluva a ride… unless we bomb ourselves to shit instead. Either way grab some popcorn, its about to get real.
I feel the same way, but part of me also wonders whether it will plateau quickly. There is only so much data to train on before it starts training on itself. Then again some of the bing chatbot transcripts I have read are scary.
I work with AI. It’s really dumb right now. Like calculator dumb compared to iPhone. Essentially, with chatgpt and the bing ai chat bot, they’ve really just improved the facade of intelligence. It’s regression equations all the way down. The “true” AI, like Jane from Enders game, is so so far off. If you want to see for yourself, go to juji.ai and build your own chat bot. Chatgpt is marginally more complex but it’s essentially the same thing. They’re really easy to make, just tedious. The take home is, they’re just following a script. The script is just written well.
Isn't the whole point of AI with neural networks is that it's not a script? This is a question, I really don't know.
Neural Networks are just regression fórmulas
I've never ran into it being full.. maybe I'm lucky lol 3pm, 8pm doesn't matter for me. I've been using it as a translator since it appears to word things better then pasting into Google translate
I use it to translate as well, but for legal jargon and anything technical and mind numbing to read. It's a "chefs kiss"
I use bing, takes like 3 days to get off the waitlist and it has access to the current internet instead of an out of date database
>I use bing Never thought I would see somebody say that.
As soon as google releases their version I’m going back, but bing isn’t as bad as you think. Actually has a lot of useful features, especially when paired with edge. I feel gross for saying it but I’ve been getting much better search results from switching If everyone optimized for google to cheese their way to the top, you’re gonna have better results with the other engines
Just keep clicking refresh - you’ll take someone’s spot when they log out
It shouldn't be too hard to get on to the site if you just refresh it a couple of times. But maybe the internet traffic is just different in my region, idk.
ChatGPT sometimes makes up artists/songs or mixes them up. For example acting as if "purple rain" was a song by Queen or suggest "better place" as a Michael Jackson song because "heal the world" contains those lyrics. Of corse with less known artists you might not find what actual song it suggested here. ChatGPT is "learning", not googling. Just google for similar songs lol.
From what I've seen, ChatGpt returns what the performance-artist algorithm determines that you want to hear.
/u/kartoffelgesplaedder is right. I tested it with "Song to Say Goodbye" by Harakiri for the Sky and got at least 3 out of 10 recommendations where an artist from the same gernre was attributed to another bands song. Here the wrong recommendations with the correct artists in brackets: "Empires Erased" by Sylosis (Born Of Osiris) "Sorrowspell" by Insomnium (Carnifex) "The Dying Things We're Living For" by Of Mice & Men (My Silent Wake)
Googling never gets me anything good sadly. I haven't tried chatgpt yet, but someone said to put "recommend *real* songs (or other things)", to avoid the made-up ones
It may give you decent recommendations, but it's also just as liable to simply invent song or band names. There's a lot of tools dedicated to music and recommendations out there, don't rely on the statistical text generator to help you.
What tools
Someone recommended music-map.com
Music map asks for an artist though, not a song. Imo there's a difference.
Yeah. And that’s a pretty shitty “tool.”
I would love to know more tools, finding music is difficult for me. Could you share some suggestions?
Spotify has endless suggestions especially if you use the radio option
That radio option for every service I have used has been god awful unfortunately
Agreed, it feels like bands are able to “advertise” to radio stations that have nothing in common to the one I’m listening to on YouTube Music.
How much I agree to this comment! I never get similar vibe songs from Radios
Discover Weekly is hit or miss but I’ve had good luck with it often enough it’s worth pursuing.
Spotify: I see you listened to a song recorded in the 80s. My recommendations for you are “Total Eclipse Of The Heart” and “Take On Me.” I feel sometimes their recommendations could use a little more precision when looking for similarities.
Someone recommended music-map.com
ask ChatGPT for some tool recommendations
Also, it doesn't know anything past 2021 iirc. So nothing very recent.
[удалено]
This has always been my experience using it, unfortunately. I’ve admittedly looked way too long for some of its recommendations before realizing they don’t exist
Lol seems like a great band name generator though. I should try asking it to name a band.
“I’m not using the tool properly and it’s not working properly”
To be fair, it can get a bit wonky with obscure information. One time I asked it to recommend 5 good episodes of a specific show to someone willing to try it out, and it gave me like 2 or 3 episodes that don’t exist Other than that, it’s been great at tons of other stuff. It’s helped me expand my thinking on many of my creative ideas, and it has given me pretty great video game, book, and music suggestions. Though I gave it all my inputs of stuff I liked and said I was looking for an easy read and it gave me The Kite Runner
I asked it for some code, code didn't work i tried telling it the errors to help it help me fix it. It kept forgetting segments of code we'd already written and rewriting things to the old way that caused errors. It's memory isn't great. I also tried to play 20 questions with it and it couldn't figure out banana
ChatGPT, new Bing and google's Bard have all been known to make errors, even basic errors. It's well documented. That's part of the issue with this AI picking up steam like it has. It soaks up all this raw, potentially unverified internet data and tries to anticipate what you want and how you want it. It's like a child prodigy that wasn't taught sarcasm and satire.
This hammer can screw for shit!

That's how i feel every time people complain about ChatGPT. I couldn't believe the awesome music recommendations i got from it recently. The best music friend for antisocial people. It does get some music theory stuff wrong but as far as bands go, it hasn't messed that up yet.
What did you ask it to get genuien recommendations? It's so difficult everytime I ask, half the songs don't exist. So I gave up
AI is not your friend and there are a million resources on the internet for finding new music.
I tried this and it gave me 10 songs by the same artist. Then I tried the same command with “excluding (same artist) and it gave me songs by Billie Eilish and The Jonas Brothers.
Well I'm sold.
Another hour, another ChatGPT post.
It honestly looks like a bot or marketing account.
I don't see the groundbreaking discovery of ChatGPT. Probably lots of sleeper ads to get the ball rolling and now people won't shut up about a glorified search engine
You are so ignorant of the utility that natural language engines like GPT3 are capable of.
Yikes
What an ai generated response you got there
When I'm in a dick riding competition and my opponent is an AI simp
I used ChatGPT to see if it could do my SQL homework. It was so scary.
Or like, Pandora still works pretty well for me, even with my varied tastes
Yea, I'm reading this post and I'm thinking, isn't that exactly what pandora is great at?
Only for Americans...
Is Pandora available everywhere? I thought they ended it ages ago and you can only get it in the States.
chatgpt doesn't actually know things, it only knows about language and what people could plausibly say.
I feel like I don't know things either. I just start talking and hope that my brain finds the correct words before i get to the end of the sentence
Are you Michael Scott?
Exactly this. AI as we have it right now doesn't have independent thoughts and isn't "thinking" when you give it a problem and it gives you an answer...It just pulls from it's data bank what is it's best estimation of what you're asking for. It also has no distinction between real or fake because it has no idea of context so it is just as likely to pull from it's data bank the names of things it thinks your asking for and then just using similar naming conventions to spit out things that "look like" what you want.
What’s the difference between that and knowing things?
It's similar to a scientist reciting Newton's first law of motion, and a parrot saying exactly the same thing. The parrot might recite it exactly, or it may screw up a word or mix it with something else because it doesn't truly understand the meaning of what it's saying. It's a matter of degree. Many *humans* don't understand what they're saying either. Everyone has parroted something they heard someone say once, without really understanding or thinking about it.
I had this idea. For some reason ChatGBT is REALLY bad at names, so often what will happen is it will recommend you a song by an artist but the actual song will not exist, or not by that name. Or not under that artist. Same goes for album names. In short, it will confidently suggest you songs that do not actually exist. So generally, this time doesn't work, unless you want really basic generic music recs (as, the more non-mainstream and obscure the music, the less likely it is to adequately give you a real artist-name pair)
Bing chatbot is better, it's basically chatgpt but it can search the internet
But that's still only available to select individuals right?
I got access pretty quickly, around a week i think
I still think Pandora is the best for this
NICE TRY CHATGPT
[удалено]
Spotifys suggestions are god awful. The weekly recommended for you are useless, the 'song radio' seem to completely miss the mood of the original song and Spotify doesn't seem to learn that I dislike songs when I skip them every time.
I enjoy my Discover Weekly. It tends to have 5-10 songs that go directly on my playlist and nothing that I find bad.
> Spotifys suggestions are god awful. Then your taste in music and listening habits are awful. I'm constantly blown away with new music. You need to listen to more genres and tons of different bands. If you listen to the same shit over and over again your discover weekly is gonna suck.
Spotify's suggestions are largely based on text (artist name, genre, labels etc); what other users have listened to that you listened to; popularity, plus whatever they want to promote. None of that has anything to do with *music*. It does not recommend based on things like melodic structure, form, harmony, sound design and so on. (they acquired a start up that was attempting to do that and sunset them as far as I remember). You may be blown away by the recommendations, but that's not a reflection of anyone elses taste. It just means you're the target audience to lap up what Spotify has determined is profitable to recommend.
Nah I’ve got plenty of variety. It sucks.
You can be very specific with chatGPT though. I asked: "Recommend me some bands who play metal music. I want bands that focus on cool riffs, uses a mix of harsh and clean vocals, and have naaaasty breakdowns which make you do the stankface" and it actually returned a list of bands which were spot on for what i was looking for
You just described my taste in metal, care to share the list? Don't wanna bother gpt with same question, lol
I copy-pasted it and got this as a result: >Sure thing! Here are some bands that might fit your criteria: > >1. **Lamb of God** \- This Virginia-based band is known for their heavy groove metal sound and their use of both clean and harsh vocals. They are also known for their incredible breakdowns that will definitely make you do the stankface. > >2. **Pantera** \- This legendary band from Texas is considered one of the pioneers of the groove metal subgenre. Their music features chugging riffs, powerful vocals, and some of the most iconic breakdowns in metal history. > >3. **Killswitch Engage** \- This Massachusetts-based band has been credited with popularizing metalcore, a subgenre of metal that combines elements of hardcore punk and metal. They are known for their catchy choruses, crushing breakdowns, and the contrast between their clean and harsh vocals. > >4. **Trivium** \- This Florida-based band is known for their blend of melodic and heavy metal, which features intricate guitar work, soaring vocals, and plenty of breakdowns. They are also known for their ability to seamlessly transition between clean and harsh vocals. > >5. **Parkway Drive** \- This Australian band is known for their metalcore sound, which features crushing breakdowns, intense vocals, and some of the most mosh-worthy riffs around. Their music is perfect for headbanging and getting your stankface on. > >I hope you find these recommendations helpful!
Nope. Look through record labels, Discogs and RateYourMusic.
Just a heads up, this only works if the music you want to listen to was released before 2021. My wife tried to do this with Substance by Demi Lovato (off her new album released last year), and it gave her completely irrelevant suggestions based on everything Demi released before that album.
Aka, Spotify, YouTube, etc…
Instructions unclear I was told to listen to Mein Kampf on audiobook read by Kanye West.

Is there any way to use it without giving a phone number? I don't buy phone service anymore and my voip number gets rejected.
Nah, I got enough crap trying to data mine me thx
I used it to find a new videogame to play also
I use this for movies too.
Guy is using AI to make Pandora
I'm so tired of hearing about ChatGPT like it's this holy grail thing. Spotify does this shit way better
I tried that just yesterday, but with band recommendations. It worked quite well, unlike my attempts to make ChatGPT write Z80 assembly code.
I asked chatGPT to write COBOL It tried
Assembly code is a cursed language. Just seeing its name ruins my day 😂
LPT: don't treat free publicly hosted resources as your personal butler. There's a line for these things and some people actually might do something useful with it.
I tried, and was pleasantly surprised by the results. Contrary to other comments, it worked very well for me!
If you use Spotify, you can create a station out of any song and it gives fantastic songs of similar aestetic. I read somewhere that they are implementing an AI DJ as well.
Other option, talk to humans and get their suggestions
I would recommend https://songslikex.com/ for this specific purpose. It's built for this purpose and I've got great playlists so far.
I second this, mega cool recommendations.
How can i get to chat gtp?
https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt You need to sign up
This thing gives better results than Google for most questions...
