Tudor England: A History
Lucy Wooding
Some books gotta be read with a great large language model. Gotta be low hallucinations though. King Arthur a myth. Says Tyler: Lucy Wooding, Tudor England: A History. A good book, but most of all a very good book to read with GPT-4 as your companion. https://t.co/JprlRzaEjS
