I think the Westminster Standards also reflect Irish Reformed theology in addition to English and Scottish. They used the Irish Articles as a source document. Joshua Hoyle was prof at Trinity College Dublin, who represented that school at the assembly. He contributed to several important committees to develop the standards. The Larger Catechism seems to reflect a lot of material from James Ussher’s Body of Divinity.
Just my take!
I have an idea about from where meta AI got its information. It probably didn’t get its information from anywhere. The way meta AI and chat GPT and other AI bots like that work is that they are trying to use information to come up with something new. they’re not a very good research tool for this reason. often, they will have “hallucinations” where they make something up out of whole cloth.
I have asked chat GPT on different occasions for information about what Calvin for some other writer thought about something, and it has gone something like:
Me: does Calvin say anything about x?
GPT: Calvin said _____ in his Book 4 chapter 5 of the Institutes.
Me: I just looked there and it doesn’t say that
GPT: You are correct! He says it in his commentary on y.
Me: No he doesn’t.
GPT: My apologies. You are correct. Calvin does not address this topic anywhere.
so it makes up whole quotes and even makes up titles of books that it attributes to various authors.
Wow. That’s not good at all.
I’m not a great reader of Science Fiction but I’ve read and seen enough to know how this turns out.
It’s to a point where I’ll see a video online and immediately wonder if it’s real or AI generated.
