Seems like a field where GPT could do a descent job
3 comments

People have translated the Bible for hundreds of years now. They have interpreted, expounded and preached it for a way longer time already. The problems are interpretation details and questions that cannot be definitely answered because the texts were composed millenia ago. This is a field where GPT is truly redundant.

Also, since it was trained on modern-day texts, it is very ill-suited for this task. And there might not be enough ancient texts to properly train a large model that could be used to extract hidden knowledge.

Descent job or decent job?
Nice typo
