"Once you're comfortable with the melody"

My teacher literally would spend one hour with me on one page of sheet music to ensure I can play the notes evenly with the correct dynamics. He could hear the tiniest hesitation I have, and then come up with specific methods to help me practice that part. That is why I don't think any of such software, AI or not, actually knows how to teach piano, and I doubt they ever will.

I tend to agree with you, as I have spent many years in lessons myself and taught for a couple. But a) real lessons are expensive and difficult to access for a lot of people, and b) even for someone who has a teacher, most practice time is self-directed. I think there's a real opportunity to make practice much more efficient, and also provide a better experience than currently exists for those who can't access a human teacher.

Also, multimodal LLMs are improving so quickly that I wouldn't be that surprised if they were able to do what you're describing in a couple of years. But they are definitely not there yet.
