I once asked ChatGPT to tell me about the history of the rhythm “Oom, Pah Oom-Pah, Oom, Pah Oom-Pah”, and it actually knew immediately and exactly what I was asking about! And it jumped right into citing a bunch of musical history on that pop Latin rhythm.
Just as it once responded with some reasonable conclusions after I asked it to explain differences between American and Japanese humor.
A major key to understanding how AI works is about how correlations/associations are calculated amongst human writings found on the internet. For decades I considered rhymes and rhythms to be not only entertaining, but indicative of a kind of unique language intelligence evolved almost exclusively in human populations, compared to simpler versions of language amongst all other animal species.
So I also believed that rhyming and rhythming could often be fun and over-rated, because humans have a kind of preternatural, neurological penchant for various paradigms of both discovering, and inventing all kinds of associations in all aspects of human language.
(At first, this is how I explained to myself the holier-than-thou behavior of grammar nazis. Until someone suggested using the term “mavens” instead of “nazis”.)
