Adding a feature because ChatGPT incorrectly thinks it exists

ChatGPT is just fancy autocomplete, so it probably got the notation from somewhere else; it’s not really capable of inventing new stuff on its own (unless it hallucinates). It would be interesting to ask it where it saw that notation in the past if you didn’t support it before, but in a way, you could say it’s a standard form of notation (from a different service).
- You know it's not strictly auto completing sentences that previously existed, right? It's using words that it anticipates should follow others. I've had it suggest code libraries that don't exist, and you'll hear about people going to the library to ask for books that haven't been written but supposedly by real authors, and it sounds like something they would write.
  Tab music notation is super common, and although it wasn't supported by this particular service before, you could see where it might be the sort of request people make, and so chatgpt combined the two.
- Iirc Wikipedia supports it for tab notation
  Personally I much prefer lilypond. I wonder if this tool supports lilypond. Would love to have a workflow to scan sheet music and get lilypond out the other end.
