Well, I asked ChatGPT:
"Can you describe Mark Knowles's theory of the Voynich manuscript?"
It just replied with some generic theory, some of which I may not disagree with, but completely missed almost all of what I have argued on the subject.
Gemini does somewhat better, at least identifying a few of my opinions, but it confuses me and my opinions with those of other people and their opinions.
Claude needed some pointing as to where I have discussed my thoughts, but once I gave it that direction did much better than the previous two. Though it missed some stuff that Gemini picked up on.
