I have to disagree with Caesar calling Antony his best general. Labienus was always his second-in-command and the only one he trusted with his armies while he was away. He seemed to think that the final battle of the civil war he fought against Labienus was even tougher than his fight against Pompey. He famously said that it was the first time he had fought for his life instead of victory.
Thank you for saying that, it was exactly what I was thinking. Labienus is one of the most under represented people in history. If a few things go different, everyone today would know his name.
@@titisuteu I think there are two primary reasons for Labienus turning against Cesar. First, Labienus was a believer in the Republic. Whatever his relationship with Cesar, his loyalty was ultimately to Rome and he felt that Cesar's actions crossed a line that should not be crossed/that he could not follow him over that line. Second, he probably didn't believe Cesar could win. Cesar was a proven general and leader already, but he faced larger and richer forces. At the time, his victory seemed unlikely. Following a traitor who fails to overthrow the senate is political suicide (and potentially actual suicide).
Yeaaaah... To say this still needs work is putting it mildly! 🤣 I asked John F. Kennedy, "What instrument did you play when you toured with The Beatles?" His response was, "That was so much fun, touring with The Beatles! I played along with them on lead guitar, which might have been a little out of my skill level at the time. I had to practice a lot to keep up and do justice to their music. You know, music is one of the things that really inspired me to go into politics in the first place, so it was amazing that I got to hang out with and play with the world's biggest and most talented musicians!" 🤣🤣🤣
So I looked up the Catherine the Great thing because I was curious. She did not abolish the death penalty but did greatly scale back its use. The official policy during her reign was to only use it for murder or treason.
I could understand AI not getting the "human" part right- emotions, etc. But you'd think it's real strength would be getting historical facts of a person's life correct!
I have messed around with ChatGPT to ask it to create short stories from one author, but done in the language and style of another. It takes a lot of effort to get it to give it a to achieve a reasonable result. So one story I asked for was a HP Lovecraft type story in the Style and language of Geoffrey Chaucer after a few efforts it managed to give me a reasonable result; but only after significant intervention from me. So is AI going to get a nobel prize for literature...... not yet is my opinion
It depends on how well they're made. I've found a few that are well enough made to actually stay on course pretty well but it does take work to get to them to do so. It is worth it though.
The first historical figure I "talked" to was Buddy Holly. It's been almost 65 years since "The Day the Music Died". It was a lot of fun and pretty neat too haha. I also busted out laughing when you asked Caesar about the Ides of March-- "Well it was a very sad day for me..." haha. Or when Patton talked about "North Korea"... haha. A.I does have a way to go when it comes to history for sure.
Mr. VTH. As a fan of world war 2's military history, I'd love to see some videos where you react to biographies of different world war 2 generals and admirals, make some of your content like your opinions on Operation Green Market, Operation Overlord, the Island Hopping Campaign and the rivalry between several generals. You might as well even make a tier list of world war 2 generals and admirals.
I'm surprised you didn't talk to TR or Lincoln. The horse question for Catherine The Great. 😆 There's a Robin Williams quote, "In a past life, I was Catherine The Great's horse." 😂
It’d be cool to talk to Alfred the Great and ask him about the cakes, the formation of England, dealings with the vikings, what he feels his greatest accomplishment is etc. Maybe even ask him about Uhtred to try and throw the AI off a bit
Patton received only one purple heart earned in WWI charging a machine gun position so the AI conflated two battles from different wars. I think they confused Patton with Patton IV who did serve in Korea.
The battle of Philippi happened 2 years AFTER Ceasar's assassination. It was a part of a war called ''The liberator's civil war'' in which the second triumvirate fought Cesar's assassin's in order to avenge him.
Benedict Arnold would be interesting. George Armstong Custer would be another AI I'd like to see you ask some questions to. Henry VIII you could make a who video of just asking the AI questions. Those are a few I think could be fun to ask some questions to.
I checked FindAGrave and found out that Buck, in fact, died from throat cancer, just like his father, at 77 years old. I also checked his siblings: Frederick also died of throat cancer at 61 years old, Nellie died of a illness after few months at 67 years old, and Jesse died of natural causes at 76 years old. So no horse accident at all.
Questions to be asked; Lincoln "Did you Enjoy the Play"?, LBJ "Would you change your philosophy on Vietnam"?Kruhschev "Why a Shoe"? Jesus "when are you returning"?
I'd say and caesar would probably say that labienus was his greatest general. i would love for you to react to more roman history especially history civilis series on the late roman republic. I Think that time period might have the most insane politics of all time. great series.
I’d like to hear from George Custer. He’s my least favorite but I would like to hear what he has to say on the the Native American Wars and why he did what he did a the Little Big Horn.👍
Generally LLMs used by these sites are not as well developed as other LLMs like Claude v 2.1 and GPT-4 Turbo for an example. So they tend to hallucinate a lot.
I did this with chat gpt. Told it to talk to me as if it were Augustus and I were a time traveler. It gave similarly surface-level responses with some inaccuracies, but the grammar was better.
Imagine AI Lee saying that slavery was completely awful although the real Lee thoguht it was God’s problem and took advantage of his time as a slaveholder
Just would like to say, that it was not Henry that established the Church of England, that was indeed Elizabeth, between 1559 and 1663, which was basically a balance between Catholic and Protestants. Henry did indeed break from Rome, but it is more accurate to say Church IN England, rather than of. Since many of the Catholic doctrines Henry kept, it was the link with Rome he wanted to sever.
I have a small instagram chanel, where I write about royal couples from the 18th century to today, and I use AI to look up things, becaue its just easier than searching the entire internet. But apperently Queen Victoria attended the wedding of Queen Wilhelmina in Febuary 1901, despite being dead for over a month at that time. So it just prooves AI is not ready to take over for us just yet. Also: Will you please do this again, but perhaps talk to Margrethe I?
VTH, the arrow on the right side of the text after a response is capable of giving you multiple alternate response to the one you were given for the first answer. Usually, this is how the AI can be trained. So, to get a better answer, it might work to rate each response and then try the next one.
Someone help me. I decided to check all answers as best I could and I don't see that Grant saw Johnston as his greatest opponent either. I'm not an expert in this field but I found a pdf of Grant's memoirs on TGP and I found this quote "I do not question the personal courage of General Johnston, or his ability. But he did not win the distinction predicted for him by many of his friends. He did prove that as a general he was over-estimated." Any input?
Would love to get a reaction/review of a new movie that is out now called the oath, no theatres in the backwoods of texas have it :) goes back to ancient american times, kinda aztec period.
My understanding is: these AI are simply analyzing text from the library to which it has access and coming up with the best proximal answers it can. It has no concept of "lying", only a concept of confidence variables that its responses are sound, based on the information analyzed. This causes it to "hallucinate" or "make up" notions, but the code itself isn't malicious. This isn't to say that someone never will write code that will actively choose to regurgitate answers that it actively believes are not the best answer, because other answers have higher confidence variables, which is the best conception I can come up with for what it would mean for a bot to "lie". Just that those would be different bots, with different levels of genuineness.
Elizabeth I most certainly did not come to the throne 4 years after her fathers death. Her brother Edward alone ruled longer than that. He was King for 6 and 1/2 years before dying from an unknown condition, often reported as being either tuberculosis, pneumonia, or a lung tumour. He is then replaced by Lady Jane Grey, who rules as Queen for 9 days before having her throne userped by Mary. She is imprisoned for a while before she dies by having her head seperated from her body, which usually does the trick. Then Mary reigns for 5 and 1/2 years before she dies, probably of uterine or ovarian cancer. Only then does Elizabeth accede to the throne, where she rules for 44 and 1/2 years before dying of blood poisoning on the 24th March 1603, thus bringing to an end the Tudor dynasty and the begining of Stuart rule in England.
Love how even an AI version of Wilson, you were getting heated by his responses. The hatred runs deep (rightfully so imo) and I love it!
The force runs strong in this one. 😅😅

Hey Chris, next time you do a chat with AI, make it a live chat with your subscribers and members. We can offer some questions to you to ask AI.

"I think it is an abomination"
You know the Napoleon movie is bad when the man himself says that 😂
To be fair, Napoleon would ABSOLUTELY claim the Battle of Austerliz as the greatest Military Victory in history.
AI Wilson is by far the most interesting AI
Wilson was a great companion for Tom Hanks.
I love how VTH immediately asked "are you racist"
@@itsfilipinoball8129followed by was your wife president
I tried this once with Napoleon and was disappointed when he was not Anglophobic enough
Yeaaaah... To say this still needs work is putting it mildly! 🤣 I asked John F. Kennedy, "What instrument did you play when you toured with The Beatles?" His response was, "That was so much fun, touring with The Beatles! I played along with them on lead guitar, which might have been a little out of my skill level at the time.

That may be, but having Kennedy do lead vocals on "Across the Universe" was still a mistake!
The AI just tends to play along with whatever you say. Which is good for roleplay or games, but not so suited for real facts.
So I looked up the Catherine the Great thing because I was curious. She did not abolish the death penalty but did greatly scale back its use. The official policy during her reign was to only use it for murder or treason.
I could understand AI not getting the "human" part right- emotions, etc. But you'd think it's real strength would be getting historical facts of a person's life correct!
LOL your back and forth with Woodrow Wilson was worth the price of addmission. Fun video, I thourgholy enjoied it.
No way Caesar said his best general was Anthony. His best general and former friend was Labienus. That little yellow square was awesome...
My 2nd favorite square behind Marc Antonys servant
"And now back to championship boxing!"
I loved this. On the next you should talk to Cleopatra, Queen Elizabeth the 2nd, Abraham Lincoln
The fact the Napoleon AI knew the movie and replied so well as if it watched the movie.
Made the response significantly more amazing
I would have asked George S Patton, Why did you slap those soldiers with PTSD?
John Bell Hood, John F Kennedy, William Wallace, Joseph Warren, Abraham Lincoln, Amenhotep III the list goes on 🙏
I have messed around with ChatGPT to ask it to create short stories from one author, but done in the language and style of another. It takes a lot of effort to get it to give it a to achieve a reasonable result. So one story I asked for was a HP Lovecraft type story in the Style and language of Geoffrey Chaucer after a few efforts it managed to give me a reasonable result; but only after significant intervention from me.
So is AI going to get a nobel prize for literature...... not yet is my opinion
This was fun and entertaining 😂. I think you should try JFK and RFK and ask them about their assassinations.
You'll bug the AI engine, the next thing you know the whole entire AI room would have been "un-plugged itself under totally hillarious circumstances".
"Damn, Napoleon is speaking french, i'll try german with him" Vlogging through history 2023
More of this VTH, fascinating stuff. Also a return to looking at historic photos & footage would be good too
The problem with the Character Ai is that it gets mislead pretty easily, you need to make them yourself than it will work (probably)
It depends on how well they're made. I've found a few that are well enough made to actually stay on course pretty well but it does take work to get to them to do so. It is worth it though.
This is the weirdest and coolest video on the channel so far. Please do more videos on this lol.
Wow I was literally using Character AI for the first time two days ago. I found it interesting seeing how the AI responds to questions.
Given Patton's belief in reincarnation, he may very well have believed he fought in the Civil War.
The first historical figure I "talked" to was Buddy Holly. It's been almost 65 years since "The Day the Music Died". It was a lot of fun and pretty neat too haha.
I also busted out laughing when you asked Caesar about the Ides of March-- "Well it was a very sad day for me..." haha.

I wonder how much of the AI's "character" comes from depictions in popular media, instead of history books and other professional sources.
I think it's a good concept for a video format since you also rate the answers. I would hope it helps them evolve.
I'll admit, i mosty came here for Wilson but i stayed because the other chats were so interesting :3
I am so sorry for your loss
idk if you ever said it in a previous video, but i never thought you'd say gigachad in a video.
The questions to Woodrow Wilson were adorable ))

Here's a couple of suggestions: Pope Alexander VI (Borgia) and Elizabet Bathory. For extra points, do Vlad Dracula (Vlad Tepes). Those could be fun.
Ha, I suggested Dracula, but the fictional character, not The Impaler. Both would be great.
Coughing fit and calling Queen Elizabeth I the second…get yourself together man! Enjoyed the video!
Another idea: Ask Francisco Franco if he agrees with Chevy Chase's assessment of his present health condition.
I can’t believe you didn’t ask Napoleon about meeting Napoleon Dynamite.
If Edith Wilson was acting president for all the time Woodrow was incapable of serving, that would be the full two terms.
I am sorry about your grandfather. R.I.P.
Patton received only one purple heart earned in WWI charging a machine gun position so the AI conflated two battles from different wars. I think they confused Patton with Patton IV who did serve in Korea.
I think having a live stream where you chat with every non-living US President would be fun.
