People, please open the article before spouting non-sense. There are some cool images and videos that would make your life a lot easier.

They did not ask chatgpt to convert files like the news a few scrolls up about converting pdf to slideshow.

They are using statistical models to figure out ink from fibre on ancient burned scrolls, from x-ray and CT scan data. Then other techniques to unroll them, so scientists can read and compare with other works.

Pretty much going from this

To this

This is the sort of stuff I was excited about AI for in the 2010s when development started showing results. Before tech(bro) companies ruined the term.
