Sad tale of trying to get ChatGPT4o mini to produce a simple fretboard diagram.
The idea here was to generate one well and then move on to others once a format and methodology were established. Finally abandoned. Maybe will try again with different prompts. Faster to draw with pencil and paper though.
I do not think we are ready to mount machine guns on AI driven machines, but I do think humanity might attempt it before it is ready.
Here is my attempt and the sad record of erroneous responses:
===================
Can you generate a diagram of the guitar fretboard for E major chords, putting the notes of the chord in every position on the fretboard they occur?
.
GPT-4o mini
I can't create visual diagrams directly, but I can describe how to visualize the E major chord on a guitar fretboard...
[irrelevant text omitted]
===================================
Actually I think you can do it. For example on the second string, instead of A |---2---| and so on you could give me - |-------|---B---| and so on to the 21st fret. If you can't do a whole diagram, can you give me all the notes and only the notes of the E major triad ( E G# there and placing a dash - where there is no such note, as we placed a dash at the bottom instead of A on the A string since A is not a note in the E major triad?
.
GPT-4o mini
Sure! Here’s a representation of the guitar fretboard with only the notes of the E major triad (E, G#, placed in their respective positions, using dashes for the other frets:
Code
e|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
B|---B---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
G|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|G#---|
D|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
==============================
Haha, that's TERRIBLE!
.
GPT-4o mini
I apologize for that! Let me provide a clearer representation of the E major triad on the guitar fretboard. Here’s a better layout:
Code
e|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
B|---B---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
G|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|G#---|
D|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
======================
hahaha so there is only one G# on the entire fretboard? And no Es or Bs on the entire fretboard? Tell me it isn't so!
.
GPT-4o mini
I appreciate your understanding, and I apologize for the confusion in my previous attempts. Let’s create a more accurate representation of the E major triad (E, G#, across the entire fretboard, showing all occurrences of these notes. Here’s the corrected diagram:
Code
e|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
B|---B---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
G|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|G#---|
D|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Thank you for your patience, and I hope this representation is much clearer and more accurate!
========================
Hahaha so yo give me the same diagram with only a G# and nothing else yet again???? I'm only asking for a single string at a time because that diagram is hopeless for this task
.
GPT-4o mini
I apologize for the confusion earlier! Let's break it down string by string, showing only the notes of the E major triad (E, G#, on each string. Here’s the representation for each string:
6th String (E)
Code
E|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
5th String (A)

2nd String (B)
Code
B|---B---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st String (e)
Code
e|---E---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Thank you for your patience, and I hope this format is much clearer!
====================
Ugh this is terrible. On the E string you should have another E at the twelfth fret. You should have a G# at the fourth fret. You should have a B at the 7th fret, and so on. Can you try again?
.
GPT-4o mini
I apologize for the oversight and appreciate your patience. Let's accurately list the notes of the E major triad (E, G#, on each string, including all occurrences across the fretboard.
E Major Triad Notes on Each String

hahaha you still left out the B though I told you what fret to put it on on the E string, and your other strings have nothing up the neck whatsoever. I thought GPT was smart!!!!!!

Back to the ChatGPT chat...
===========================
OK, I have done this myself and want to see if you can present the identical result, always paying attention to my formatting. If you can I will have you generate other chord diagrams in the similar manner. Here's what I have - a diagram to the twelfth fret. For the E string: E|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--| You will generate this line first, with no text or descriptions: just the line. Then the next line you will generate for the B string the following, again, with no text or descriptions, just the line: B|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--| Pay attention to formatting: the open string just has the note, no dashes. The number of dashes in each section will make the fretboard even. When you get to G# you only have one dash before and after the G# because the characters take up more room. When you get to E or B you have two dashes before and after. Try it out.

Good!!! Now repeat with the G string. We will not put the note G at the bottom because it is not in the E major Chord, but instead a single dash to keep the fretboard even. Like this: -|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|

That is absolutely perfect. Can you "see" how this is a diagram of the E major chord?
GPT-4o mini
Yes, I can see how this represents the E major chord on the guitar fretboard! Each line corresponds to a string, and the notes E, G#, and B are placed at their respective positions on the fretboard. The diagram effectively shows where to place your fingers to play the E major chord. If you have any more chords or diagrams you'd like to create, feel free to let me know!
==================
Then see if you can generate me a diagram now of the notes of the E minor chord using the same format.
.
GPT-4o mini
Sure! The E minor chord consists of the following notes: E, G, and B. Here’s the diagram for the E minor chord using the same format:
Code
E|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|

-|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|

Let me know if you need any adjustments or additional chords!
===========================
That's close to what I want, but there are errors. The G string is incorrect. It should start with G| There are more errors, but lets see if you can correct that one first then we will consider the next error
.

Yes, I see that now. The G note should be included on the G string in the E minor chord diagram. Thank you for your patience. Here’s the corrected version with the G note included:
Code
E|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
B|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|
-|-----|--G--|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|
-|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-G--|-----|
-|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|
E|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
If you have any further adjustments or additional chords you'd like to create, please let me know!
=================
But you left it out again -the G on the E strings.

I apologize for the oversight. Thank you for your patience. Here’s the corrected version of the E minor chord diagram, ensuring the G note is included on the G string:
Code
E|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
B|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|
-|--G--|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|

-|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-----|-----|
E|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
Thank you for your understanding, and I hope this is now correct!
==============
Do you understand the sequence of chromatic notes? E F Gb G ? And how that sequence dictates where the G should be in the two strings beginning with E|----- ???
.
GPT-4o mini
Yes, I understand the sequence of chromatic notes. The sequence goes E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#, and back to E.
====================
In the context of the E minor chord, the G note should be placed correctly on the G string (3rd string) and the D string (4th string) based on this sequence.
I appreciate your guidance, and I will ensure the G note is placed correctly in the next attempt. Thank you for your patience. Would you like me to try creating the E minor chord diagram again?
================
sure give her a whirl

Thank you for your guidance, and I hope this is now correct!
======================
Nope you left out the G where it belongs and inserted the G where it doesn't belong. You have in direct succession on the "D string" D G E !!!!!!!!!! that's nuts.

Let's not mount machine guns driven by AI yet. Not sure about brain surgery either. Assist maybe, but no scalpel for you (I hope!) lol
On the brighter side I did get it to generate a fair list of chord spellings, albeit after some time and effort to get this far it still was shy of the longer list of 58 I use to hand out to students. The final result was not too bad though I haven't checked it for errors yet. Some may find it useful: To much trouble maybe to try to get fretboard diagrams of more of these from CGPT4 -maybe next update.

I had a good laugh reading this because have gone through similar experiences.
I don't get why anyone is still trying to use ChatGPT to do anything other than helping to code. It's almost always wrong, and even if it's not, you have to assume that it's wrong, in which case why not just do it yourself?
Sorta like abusive spouse syndrome. She lets you down again and again, but when she's hot, man she is hot.
Well that’s commitment, though I’m always much kinder to them, you know, they might remember somewhere down the line😅
How would the results be when using Grok?
Something something white supremacist something
"Great answer ChatGPT, thank you; even though it totally failed this time u r so awesome..."
Haha, keep your real thoughts to yourself yes, u never know 😂
No.
From Grok:
I can help create guitar chord chart diagrams! I can describe them textually or provide a structured format to represent the chord diagrams, as generating actual images directly isn't possible in this text-based response. Below, I'll explain how to represent guitar chord charts and provide an example. If you want a specific chord or a visual representation through code (e.g., for use in a tool like Chart.js or a text-based diagram), let me know!
Text-Based Guitar Chord Diagram
A guitar chord chart typically shows:
Here’s an example of a text-based diagram for a C major chord:
Explanation:
- X32010: This is the chord's fingering shorthand, where each digit represents the fret number for each string, starting from the low E string to the high E string.
- X = Mute or don’t play the string.
- 0 = Play the string open.
- Numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) indicate the fret to press and often correspond to finger placement.
Creating a Diagram Programmatically
If you want a more visual or structured representation, I can provide a JSON-like structure that could be used to render a chord diagram in a tool or library (though not Chart.js, as it’s not suited for chord diagrams). Alternatively, I can describe how to use a tool like VexTab (a JavaScript library for music notation) to render guitar chord diagrams if you’re looking for code.
Here’s an example of a JSON structure for a G major chord (320003):
This structure could be used by a rendering library to draw the chord diagram.
Steps to Create a Diagram
Example for Another Chord
Here’s a text-based diagram for A minor (X02210):
Questions for You
Let me know your preferences, and I’ll tailor the response! If you’d like, I can also search for tools or libraries to render these diagrams or check X for chord chart resources if needed.
Looks like you could've used Grok and saved yourself an entire day of work.
Anyone who has presented more than three independent thoughts on the internet is already marked for the gulag.
Actually that looks like almost the same initial dialog with CGPT4 which I omitted for the sake of space. CGPT was actually able to get that far too, but that wasn't what I was after. Took probably about 15 min I think. Whole day of that would have been more than my fragile sanity could take, lol.
What I was looking for was for it to generate the following
(which I even typed out for CGPT4 and and it still couldn't do!):
E|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
B|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|
-|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|
-|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|
-|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|
E|-----|-----|-G#-|-----|-----|--B--|-----|-----|-----|-----|--E--|
Use? Selecting any combination of three notes E G# B in any order anywhere on the neck gives you E maj chords (or a second or third inversion thereof) with different voicings because of the physical differences of the strings and vibrations at lower vs. higher positions and variety of octaves used (guitar 101 stuff). Quick visual too for arpeggios, tapping, etc. The pattern repeats after the 12th fret so you don't need more, but might want a bit more if it can fit in text margin.
Purpose? There is probably an app(?) that can generate this with any combination of notes or feeding the relevant intervals for the chord (here E and 1 3 5), but even that was not what I was really after ; I was trying to nudge CGPT4 to learn a format (not just a single diagram) which I could then tweak and vary to cut and paste for some purpose of communicating any diagrams I might want via email, ultimately with a view to quickly generating and using any possible chord diagram for any/all other triads or extended chords with the same format. Alas it couldn't even produce the initial diagram/format if it was spoon fed... Maybe Grok can do? Dunno. Ultimately just wasting a little time before time wastes me lol.
I guess give Grok a try and try to be very general in your requests first and if that doesn’t work, try painful levels of detail. LOL.
Honestly, I’m not sure any of these systems can generate what you’re looking for until they’ve been trained on something which they can reference first, but I could be wrong about that.
This is why we shouldn't mount machine guns and such driven by AI yet (though we already have). It'll kill my dog in some hallucinatory spell and say I hope that helped enjoy your day.
Is this correct?
Looks correct and visually pleasing. Is that grok?
It's GPT-4.1. I was noticing that the OP used a very small (dumb) model (GPT-4o-mini), so was not surprised at the incorrect response they got. So I double-checked myself with a non-dumb model 😃
Thanks, I’m more impressed with the capabilities now. Not enough to subscribe yet but it’s worth a thought. Cheers
Sure! Yeah, the free models kinda blow. You really should subscribe. The value you get out of $20/month (an omni-competent, infinitely patient, all-knowing intelligence that can solve virtually ANY task that doesn't require actual prolonged physical interaction) is absolutely insane and it's actually criminally cheap.
Awesome; you have restored my hope for the project -thanks! I didn't know there was such a disparity between models -good (essential) to know!
...reluctantly reaches for wallet...
😄 Well, you don't have to and I'm not getting a commission from OpenAI 😂 But yeah, the difference really is night and day and OpenAI should probably make this clearer in the dropdown / documentation. Also for their own wallet maybe 😄
I haven’t bought into it yet because I don’t see a point for MY needs, I mean I did loads of these kinds of diagrams for piano and guitar on excel for myself, and I had fun doing it (just to take on this very specific case)
But I don’t disapprove of anyone using it, and I might find personal uses for it myself in the future. I used to dream about this being a reality when I was a young computer engineer full of dreams
But now the mega companies doing it, don’t get me started, they are predatory.
In a perfect world these would be open source models done for the benefit of mankind. We seem to be past that, all it matters is the old mighty dollar, and even knowledge repositories like wikipedia or archive.org are under attack, cause of course you have to keep the population ignorant so it is better controllable. I'm not even talking about copyright infringement, and data mining, I’m really scared humanity is reverting to burning books and libraries.
Alexandria burning set humanity back by who knows how many years, now imagine that correct to inflation to today’s times
Sorry I’m being grumpy
