I asked ChatGPT for help writing a program in R to classify whether an artwork is ok, a forgery, or Nazi loot. What do you think of the result?
Formulating questions for an AI Chatbot can be a good way to clarify issues and methodologies.
In the conversation below, I ask ChatGPT for help in detecting patterns in the false provenances of looted art and forgeries that have been identified and debunked. ChatGPT reformulates the questions and adds some insights that can be useful.
