Regarding the first ChatGPT-generated summary of Joel Orosz's Asylum articles, Bob Leonard writes:

I was interested to read about Joel Orosz and his experiences using ChatGPT to summarize his series of articles on Bushnell and the Flandin catalog. This puts Joel on the leading edge of technology and innovation. This was not always true.

Around 2015, I was working with Joel and Len Augsburger on another project. I produced a composite photograph illustrating our level of computer literacy.

The guy in the red shirt is Len Augsburger working on his modern laptop. The guy in the blue shirt is Pete Smith working on an eight-year-old desktop computer. The guy in the white shirt is Dr. Joel J. Orosa Ph.D. writing with a quill pen.

It would appear that with Len's help, Joel has progressed well beyond my ability to write at a 10th grade level. Perhaps the two of them can now teach me how to use AI to write a weekly feature on numismatic biography.
