And then there's a Waffle Squardle, occasionally.

With all the current AI hype, I thought I'd give it a go myself.
I asked it to analyse the logs of a ship we haven't transcribed or edited yet, to make sure it wouldn't use 'our' data, and present the weather observations in tabular and graphical form, and mark where it thinks the log-keeper made a mistake, or where instruments were probably misread, and correct it to the more likely value.
I also asked to add the remarks pages in textual form.
And, as cherry on the cake, plot the positions on a map, correlating landmarks with contemporary maps.
I was sceptical to start with, but actually am bowled over by the result.
I'm sure you'll agree, it's just nothing short of spectacular.
Following the link below to see the result for yourself, and be awed.

Does this mean transcribers and editors will be obsolete soon?

Re: Chat
Randi, I have wondered how you were fairing with the springtime storms. A house we own in central Illinois has hail damage - western screen shredded- can't see the roof from the west coast. And daughter in Oakland had 7 inches of water in their basement because their power was off for a day, All in all, no one is hurt, everything can be easily fixed- which I know is not the case everywhere. Stay safe.
