So, what did it say?
Gaius Corpulus to Flatulus Maxius:
Greetings to you and to all in your household. To your wife and children I send my best wishes for health and prosperity. And I do beseech you to remind that mischievous Celtic slave girl to keep our little secret. I am confident you will not endeavor to enquire of her as to its nature.
My thoughts often turn to home and the superb wine pressed from the vineyards on the slopes of Vesuvius. And it is on the subject of Vesuvius that is the occasion for this epistle.
My travels in the East have introduced me to certain men of knowledge, and who claim that the superb soil of a region is sometimes associated with the past wrath of Vulcan displayed in a fury of fire, smoke and terrible destruction. They further informed that such incidents follow not long on the heels of great shaking of the ground as Vulcan himself hammers his forge closer and closer to those to whom he would bring harm.
You no doubt remember clearly the great shaking that destroyed much of Pompeii just two years before I was called to my first tour of duty in Cappadocia. And so I write urge that you and your family relocate to Rome or Capua without delay.
Whatever you do — don’t just roll up this letter and stick it on the shelf.

Depending upon just who programmed the AI, the text could be deciphered in many ways. I would not be at all surprised if Globull Climate Crap and a plethora of pronouns were ‘deciphered’ ‘discovered’ ‘revealed’ in the text.

AI IS PEOPLE!!!!!!!
If it’s AI, we know that means we can believe it unconditionally.
Which is smarter, AI, or a CNN Expert?
Well done! :)

Isn’t anyone going to say “Drink your Ovaltine” ...?
Great translation!
LOLOL!!
That’s what I want to know!

Already heard about this somewhere a while back. It does not sound like they found anything ground breaking written. And only some scattered words here and there.

They only “unwrapped” the scroll. They didn’t translate the text.
