I'll take that bet at 5:1 against.

> Bet $100 that all classical music

ALL classical music, in just 3 years. I'm perfectly willing to put my entire net worth on the line for this one.

Be serious.

No one with enough bored capital to patronize the arts is going to go to see and be seen at a performance of a synthetic symphony - or not more than once or twice, anyway, for the sake of the thing. Philharmonics need not fear for their concert halls, or not at least for this reason.

I think GP was betting against, not for.

I'd pay good money to see Antheil's "Ballet Mécanique", which requires 16 synchronized player pianos...

But yes, I'm not sure I'd be interested in whatever ChatGPT threw out.

It's trivial bet anyways, you just need one human-composed piece as counter-evidence. You can even compose it yourself!

Perhaps I should. An infinite future of the Berlin Philharmonic under Karajan, producing performances only slightly more perfectly machined, needs some antidote.
