Hi Stuart. Perhaps you are only joking, but no, I think that with no
knowledge of any word meanings, one could not learn from a dictionary even
the meaning of "dictionary" or "word" or "sentence." The dictionary would
be meaningless chicken-scratch. The most we could learn is that some kinds
of chicken-scratch commonly or should logically follow other kinds of
chicken-scratch, which is what ChatGPT is designed to report.
