@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.
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi There are multiple accounts and many doubts depending on which version of History one chooses. That's part of why I want to use Bayesian Analysis and have looked at #PeterTurchin 's #SeshatProject
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi I am leaning toward Bayesian Analysis but need to collect the elements that probably contribute to how religious thought spreads. An example, Martin Luther Rebelled and according to one account, Luther nailed his Ninety-five Theses to the door of All Saints' Church in Wittenberg on 31 October 1517.
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi That's the goal. I am still collecting data. I have played with epidemiology models and gravity models. The goal is to build a #ChronoDendrogram of the spread of religious thought. I got tired adding the religions of the Parents of the founders and got more tired trying to collect the corpus of religious texts. My profile on #Xhitter is of the formation of #TheBible and other foundational texts.
@HistoPol@paninid@Outmazi@Beachbum Currently around 800 religious "denominations". I grew frustrated with Gemini when it refused to answer question. And became pedantic about founders/leaders.
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-
