I don't know how the semantic model of Google Sets work and how it's trained, but I imagine that they at least look for "neighbours", so if the training program encounters the sentence "my favourite cars are Ford, Citroën and Yugo", then it'll learn that "Ford", "Citroën" and "Yugo" are all in the same semantic category - namely cars. So if you afterwards give it a set containing "Ford", "Audi", "Mazda" and "Citroën", then it'll know to include Yugo. It might not have encountered (or recognized) that many band names and sound synthesis programs... Yet. :) Hehe, not that surprising I think.

Btw Google Sets returned zero results on the following stets (who do i, system, dub tractor) and (pure data, max, jmax). I found that disapointing, too. Agreed.
