Does this type of explanation actually help the neural net do anything? If ChatGPT is just combining other instances of A minor music it has been trained on, and has no ability to "understand" what "letters referring to musical notes" actually is, why bother explaining this? Have you tried simply asking it up front to use an am7 chord as the basis for a chord progression or song?

That’s correct. It already knows what “works” musically because it’s likely seen many thousands of harmonic progressions in its training data. The input we give it just constrains it rather than teaching it something new. At least that’s my guess.
