Same here. I've been working through some textbooks without solutions for the contained exercises, and ChatGPT has been invaluable for getting feedback on solutions and hints when I'm stuck
The question that motivated the comment obviously implies that this is unbelievable for undisclosed reasons (related to its "current state.") Smarter to argue with the premise than the fluff.
The design in the OP is still more appealing (if less practical) to me because its movements and how it plays are still fairly close to how a human would play (Precisely because of the sliding). Sort of like how we generally find it less interesting when a specialized robot can perform some specific task rather than say a humanoid robot, even if it is worse at said task.
I suspect that the software could address that. We can "humanize" MIDI files, after all. (Not to mention that we can prepare them by capturing performances.)
I'd like to hear a simulated slide by a ripple sent to the fixed-position actuators; would it be convincing?
I'm also not the biggest fan of the white-on-black style, but there is definitely precedent (at least in science-youtube-space) for explainer videos "drawn live" [1-4]
