At first it wouldn't give me specifics because of copyright rules so I explained that if I went to a human guitar teacher, they would pull the song up on their phone listen to it, then teach me how to play it. It agreed with me and then started answering questions about the song.

Haha, we should give it some credit. It takes a lot of maturity to admit you are wrong.

Due to how much ChatGPT wants to please you, it seems like it's harder to _not_ get it to admit it's wrong some days.

I had similar experiences, unrelated to music.
