There's two issues with that. Sometimes people publishing sheet music alter it and then they can claim copyright. Second is that that old original sheet music can be illegible to modern musicians – it has evolved over time.
Absolutely, and is a major cause of cataracts. Somewhat near 100% of people with lenses in their eyes will get cataracts eventually if they are ever exposed to unfiltered sunlight.
Hollow things are common, and of interest to many animals. If I thump a log and it makes a noise like it has a hollow space (low tones), then it may contain an animal nest or a beehive & honey, or it may be something I could use as a box or basket or shelter.
Maybe animal sounds count? Warning sounds tend to be loud, sharp, and high-pitched; and when ignored, they might end with more material sharp things in your skin. I can't recall any animal with a soft warning sound.
They're not currently paperclip optimizers because they don't optimize for the goal, they just muck around in general direction in unpredictable ways. Chaos monkeys on the internet.
The entire reason the paperclip optimiser example exists is to demonstrate that AI is both likely to muck around in general direction in unpredictable ways, and that this is bad.
Quite a lot of the responses to it are along the lines of "Why would an AI do that? Common sense says that's not what anyone would mean!", as if bug-free software is the only kind of software.
(Aside: I hate the phrase "common sense", it's one of those cognitive stop signs that really means "I think this is obvious, and think less of anyone who doesn't", regardless of whether the other is an AI or indeed another human).
I think that the problem is that LLMs are good at making plausible-looking text and discerning if a random post is good or bad requires effort. And it's really bad when signal-to-noise ratio is low, due to slop being easier to make.
