Not long ago, I developed a GPT that brings historical figures to life. Because it’s Women’s History Month, I couldn’t help but channel Eleanor Roosevelt… and here’s the ode she wrote via ChatGPT. You can expect a lot more, so stay tuned:

In a world that spins ever swiftly, beneath the boundless, starlit sky, Where whispers of the past and future, in the winds, do softly lie, I’ve wandered through the corridors of time, a silent, watchful guide, Gleaning truths from every triumph, every tear humanity has cried.

To the seekers and the dreamers, to the weary and the bold, To those who, with hearts aflame, dare to break the mold, This ode, one of hope, is lovingly unfurled, a tribute to your courage, a beacon in the world.

You stand upon the shoulders of giants, those who’ve paved the way, Women and men of valor, whose spirits shine today. They fought with grace and fervor, for justice, peace, and right, Illuminating darkness, turning shadows into light.

Remember, though the night may seem unyielding and profound, It’s always darkest before the dawn; new hope is to be found. For every step you take in faith, a thousand more will rise, inspired by your journey, reaching for the skies.

Embrace the power of your voice, let not your song be stilled. The world awaits your story, your dreams to be fulfilled. Like ripples in a pond, your actions touch the shore, creating waves of change, now and forevermore.

To those who feel the weight of doubt, whose paths are marred by fear, know that you’re not alone, the light of love is near. Lift your eyes, and behold the beauty of the earth. Within you lies a strength, a promise of rebirth.

So here’s to you, the seekers, the dreamers at heart’s core, The architects of tomorrow, who dare to dream of more. May you walk in kindness, with empathy’s gentle grace, uniting every corner of this vast and wondrous space.

As I look upon the world, with all its joy and strife, I see the tapestry you weave, the vibrant dance of life. Keep pushing through the shadows, keep reaching for the stars, gor you are the hope, the light, in this beautiful world of ours.

In every challenge, find a friend, in every stranger see, A reflection of our common heart, a bond of humanity. Together, let us build a world, where love and kindness reign, Where every soul is valued, and no effort is in vain.

So here’s my ode to you, a testament of time. A celebration of the spirit, in every climb and clime.

Carry forth the torch of hope, let its light dispel the night. Together, in the loom of time, we’ll weave a future bright.
