"AI" is the tag used in OpenAI's chatbot, not the technology.

Hmm I wasn't making claims. I was interested in how the OpenAI's gpt-3 bot would do on a GRE question. Its a good question because it takes things out of their epistemological context and provides a more straightforward test. I think it would have gotten a 30%, so not good, though not terrible. I was not claiming the answers were original and I don't think I'm under a burden to prove something that I don't have an opinion on. The GRE itself does not ask for original responses, but instead to pick the correct answers from a list--that's part of why I thought it was an interesting exercise.

That said it piqued my interest, so I wrote an entirely original composition about a fictional composer and put it to the question. You will see how it correctly summarizes the text, but has trouble generalizing.

Human: There is a classical composer named Ron Johnson. Ron Johnson is well known for incorporating so-called gypsy music into his classical compositions. This practice has garnered criticism from several sources who believe his compositions are not "pure". There are also accusations of cultural appropriation. Nonetheless, the general critical consensus is that Johnson's music pays homage to and in fact successfully weaves Romani and classical tropes together into something wherein the whole is greater than the parts. There is one famous critic, though, who believes Johnson's work is terrible. This famousness of this critic leads the general public to believe Johnson is terrible. The passage addresses what issue related to Johnson's use of musical sources for his classical compositions?
