Artificial Intelligence Cracked 'Voynich Manuscript'- A Mysterious Script That Hasn't Been Cracked for 600 Years!!

For centuries, the book has been a mystery to all humankind, but finally we may able to read it. Thanks to Artificial Intelligence, the technology invented 500 years after it was written.

The Voynich manuscript also known as world's most mysterious book, consists of 240 pages, which contains cryptic texts, written in an unknown language with very bizarre diagrams and illustrations. it even contain folded pages, which is very strange for a medieval book.

Over the years, Voynich manuscript has caused a lot of controversy and debate with some arguing that the ancient medieval text contain an encoded message written by an unknown author. Because of the enigma surrounding the Voynich manuscript, many questions are left in the air. Does the Voynich manuscript really contain a secrete message? if so, is this encoded message an unknown language that we are unable to break? or, is the book is a complete hoax?

The text is believed to be composed in Northern Italy during the Italian Renaissance, and it is named after Wilfrid Voynich, the Polish book dealer, who purchased the manuscript in the early 20th century. The Voynich manuscript has been studied by various professional and amateur cryptographers, which include the American and British codebreakers from the two World Wars and since no one has succeeded in deciphering it's contents, it remains a famous and exciting case in the history of cryptography. At present the manuscript is safeguarded in Yale University's Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library.

According to current news, it looks like we may have a new lead in this case as Canadian computer scientists rumored to be succeeded in deciphering the manuscript.

One of the crew member Greg Kondrak says:

" It turned out that over 80 per cent of the words were in a Hebrew dictionary, but we didn't know if they made sense together.

Failing to find any Hebrew scholars who could help validate their findings, the researchers eventually resorted to using Google Translate, but even though they acknowledge there's some guesswork involved, there does seem to be a match with the text.

In the opening section of the 'Herbal' chapter of the Voynich manuscript, which contains drawing of several kinds of plants, many botany-related terms appear, including farmer, light, air, and fire

She made recommendations to the priest, man of the house and me and people," are the Voynich manuscript's first words, according to the AI. Recommendations to do with herbal botany, perhaps? The team says we can't be sure. It came up with a sentence that is grammatical, and you can interpret it"

Kondrak told the Canadian press

"Somebody with very good knowledge of Hebrew and who's a historian at the same time could take this evidence and follow this kind of clue. Can we look at these texts closely and do some kind of detective work and decipher what can be the message?"

If things go properly and as more Hebrew scholars joining the crew, we can get a clear picture.
