Misread this as Demosthenes at first.

Would be fun to see models trained on ancient figures that you could interact and chat with.

Less fun to see models imitating human art, they’re not ready for that yet IMP because they’re too derivative and not creative in interesting ways in the way that humans are.

I tend to think of "Damascus" or something, and the Greek feeling of the word is undeniable. The modern Rosetta Stone. So it is understandable when others in this thread are crying blasphemy, and hoping the TFA author gets struck blind.
