@HistoPol I consider myself AVERAGE. But my average is caused by living in the tails of the distribution instead of just in the middle of the distribution.
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi Interestingly, working through my founders table, my idea of religious transmission had to expand a couple of times to include TV, Radio, and online evangelism. I am a #RabidAtheist.
@HistoPol To your point, #Elmo and #Xhitter either think I'm a bot, don't like my politics and/or don't like it when I am mean to them. BTW--I grew up in abject poverty, homeless at times living in the back of a for pickup with alcoholic evangelical parents. I have had 12 reincarnations on #Xhitter
@HistoPol@BlumeEvolution@paninid@Outmazi@Beachbum If you want to see something I think is amazing, take a song or a poem that has deep meaning to you personally, and prompt ChatGPT to do a Hermeneutical or Close reading of the work of art.
I have actually been impressed with the machine translation of Pinking Shears by Mandy Indiana. I've had 4 years of high school French, so I get every 3rd word. Lol. https://youtu.be/V8I7JGpeI-E
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi@Beachbum Hubby and I actually got to see a lot of which you speak a few years back. We took a cruise of Greece, Italy, and Egypt. The port of Cairo/Alexandria and went to the valley of the kings, pyramids, sphinx. I would recommend it to anyone if they can.
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi@Beachbum I started with the Pew Religious Landscape Study 2014 Questionnaire Code Book. I then marched through the code book asking Bard/Gemini to provide the Founder/Leader, Year of Founding, City of Founding, Latitude of City, Longitude of City. I got tired when prompting for Parents of Founder and their religions. Also was collecting Foundational texts. I was waiting until AI could read and work on my spreadsheet autonomously.
FEAR no more the heat o' the sun, Nor the furious winter's rages;Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages:Golden lads and girls all must,As chimney-sweepers, come to dust. -Fidele,Shakespeare-
