Thank you for bringing that up, for from the adjustments to the transliteration that I made above, I'm getting a rock-solid translation of the following for the first paragraph of f99r.
English translation: The mixture is softened and oiled in the bath, then strain it into the water bath for the plant tops; at the proper readiness of the oil, the cooked tops are submerged, continually oiling them gradually. Once brought to a thinned-out readiness, the prepared body. yes the prepared body, is adapted to it; managing the linens appropriately for it, by means of the oil at this state of readiness, use the linens to strain the liquid during the cooking down. Pour the raw material into a glass vessel with hot water, keeping it lubricated with oil under the heat of the cooking; by this stage, the substance must be regulated to temper the worked mass. To obtain the finished product, strain it when the linens are brought to readiness, sealing the deep basin containing the strained batch with wax in the oiled water bath, completing the final poured reduction within the bath.
Now to not to draw the ire against AI assistance and to help act as separate verification, I am keeping separate my process of going from themy modified AVA transliteration of abbreviated Italian into expanded Italian, which resulted in the above English prose. That way a separate verification may chance to occur.
Now hold on a moment, you didn't address the point at all. There are only ~20 letters, so you only have ~20 possible words. So given your english translation above, aren't you just straight up admitting that you're simply transliterating the text into AVA and then asking AI to work out what it means? Theres no relevant part of this that is human made other than the initial transliteration.
You can't just say "i've translated a paragraph from the VMS into english" and then say you won't show the process because its an AI solution, as AI solutions are against the rules. You're showing the AI generated result.

It can and does provide full details are about how it knew, but that's neither here nor there at the moment.
I'm sorry, but it is here, and it is there. Just because it says where it got something from does NOT mean it is bringing up real sources. LLMs lie, hallucinate, and go along with what the prompter says.
