Testing Artificial Intelligence Results

In my tests to compare the results of AI, I asked various AI's to tell them about me so at least I had the knowledge to know what was correct or not. There are many people with my name so as these articles are focussed on relevance to the church, I gave two facts: the YouTube channel Our Lady Of Hope Music and that I wrote the music column in the Universe Catholic Newspaper (until its close in 2024)

Elizabeth Prout - Mother Mary Joseph, Foundress of the Sisters of the Cross and Passion

Elizabeth Prout was born on September 2, 1820, in the market town of Shrewsbury, England. Her family was firmly rooted in the Anglican tradition, which was the established church in England. Growing up in the early 19th century, Elizabeth was part of a society that was deeply divided along religious lines.
