July 9, 2025: Founder Adds Feature Due to ChatGPT Rumors - Adrian Holovaty, founder of Soundslice, was surprised when images of ChatGPT sessions appeared on his music-teaching app, leading to errors. ChatGPT incorrectly claimed the app could convert ASCII tablature into audible music. This misinformation led to new users being dissatisfied with the app's capabilities.

To address the issue, Holovaty decided to add the feature, although he never intended to support ASCII notation. He had mixed feelings about developing a feature due to misinformation, likening it to sales teams overpromising and pressuring developers to create new functionalities.
