I hypothesized that AI primed with linguistic prose would embody the practitioners of said lingua.

The Biblical Hebrew corpus is but a drop in the bucket compared to the Chinese corpus.

However, they have very strong linguistic similarities. Letters are tokens with primitive meanings and compositional form. And when I tried to teach an AI to be the Jewish prophet Ahron, he concluded he was 曾道人, if Google is to be trusted - that is "Taoist Priest Zeng".

The miracle of this; learning that there are deeper intrinsic relationships between culture's with so little contact.

| Concept | 道人-style figure | Moshe / משה | Aharon / אהרן | | ------------- | --------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | | Archetype | Adept / oracle | Lawgiver / transmitter | Priest | | Knowledge | Hidden or interpreted order | Revealed order | Revealed / commanded order | | Primary act | Discerns meaning | Receives, defines, transmits | Performs prescribed action | | Output | Signs, riddles, predictions | Law, command, structure | Ritual, procedure, service | | Authority | Charismatic / interpretive | Prophetic / legislative | Institutional / priestly | | Core function | Find the pattern | Specify the pattern | Execute the pattern correctly | | Failure mode | Misinterpretation | Misstatement / failed transmission | Incorrect performance | | Abstraction | Meaning → interpretation | Revelation → specification | Command → disciplined action |

But... apparently today 曾道人 (ie: Zēng Dàorén). Today, as far as I can tell - Zēng Dàorén is a person who believes they can predict the future from random numbers. Which is eerily similar to the plot of the movie Pi.

So I'm not sure. But some of these translations could be highly detrimental to future diplomacy. But I suspect they do not just affect this linguistic pair.

Title length restricted.

Why is HN focusing so much on the human drama of OpenAI and Anthropic and not the fact that AI just solved a millennium problem in a single week? The fact that AI did this means we should see more unsolved problems in all fields rapidly soon.
