HCMIR23: 2nd Workshop on Human-Centric Music Information Research
Original Kurzfassung:
We explore whether large language models (ChatGPT) can be used as a ?distant reading? tool to estimate
music similarity between songs from textual information, complementing experiments with human
participants. We compare degrees of rater agreement to previous results from a listening test, showing
that correlation of ChatGPT with human raters is significantly lower than the average human inter-rater
agreement, but nevertheless still of moderate positive size. We discuss whether an approach based on
the largely opaque ChatGPT model can be scientifically valid and to what extent it allows transparent
evaluation of music information research experiments.
