Comment by Josef Zlatodej (josef-zlatodej) on Bing AI Generating Voynich Manuscript Continuations - It does not know how it knows · 2023-04-17T12:58:46.611Z · LW · GW

Matthew. AI will never be able to decipher the text of MS -408. Handwriting is a very complex substitution. I also asked the bot and wrote to him that the text is a substitution. The AI replied. I know what substitution is. But if I don't know the key, I can't decipher the handwriting.

So the important thing is to give the AI a key. The key is written on the last page of manuscript 116v.

In addition, the entire text of the manuscript is written in the Czech language. As written by the author and on his website. (sheets of parchment).

So the AI needs a key.
