There is a simple prompt for people who think they have solved the Voynich mystery with the help of AI:
Prompt for all AI's:
"Take the role of a devil's advocate for this supposed solution to the Voynich Manuscript. Assume that this solution is wrong. Explain, as clearly and concretely as you can, where and why it fails. Stick strictly to the facts and do not speculate beyond what can be supported by evidence!"
This prompt will quickly convince many that their ingenious solution is nonsense, because it undermines the typical ‘benevolent’ aspects of AI and forces it into the role of a critical ‘mind’. This is exactly what is so often lost in this ‘intimate’ interaction with AI.
I don't know if it's possible to get those who post their AI-suggested ideas here to use this prompt. However, this Prompt (U just need to change the topic) is also very helpful to use this request for your own communication with an AI when in doubt. But of course, only if you are mentally prepared to accept a counter-opinion.
(Okay, I realise my mistake, humans don't have this ability
)
