A.I. has been a point on our horizon that inches closer with each new development but remains far and away from what we expect it to be. In late 2022, that point on the horizon was pulled a lot closer when Open A.I. began redirecting its latest iteration of ChatGPT along the right channels of our electric avenues.
The interesting thing in how we evolve is that we don't always get things right the first time we try them. In fact, we're wrong more often than not, and it's not until we rework things into the right configuration that we begin to finally see dividends pay off with relation to things we had hoped would revolutionize our world sooner.
The near instant consolidation of data became an expected but unexciting benefit.
Then ChatGPT got to throw its non-fungible two cents into the mix, and questions posed (whether sought to reconcile philosophical concepts or provide objective analyses of controversial socio-political policy) were returned with some spectacular levels of insight.
Enter another tantalizing application: historical analysis.
Until now, we've only had one-dimensional accounts from every player involved in any historical event. Think of WW2, and the disparity between, say, British versus German versus Japanese versus Russian versus American interpretations of how the war unfolded and concluded.
With the current potential of A.I. systems like ChatGPT, we can consolidate narratives to give us the most accurate accounts possible - objective assessments extracted from subjective narratives; answers that could only have previously been curated at a snails pace via biased minds.
We can now cultivate historical information comprehensively, quickly and accurately - and that's what Borealism expects to do: to rewrite history.
