Kodachrome X Fujifilm Recipe made by ChatGPT vs Fuji X Weekly Kodachrome II

I asked ChatGPT to create a Kodachrome X Film Simulation Recipe for my Fujifilm X-T5. Can it do it? If so, is it any good? Let's find out!
Kodachrome was an iconic color slide film made by Kodak between 1935 and 2009 that was often found in classic publications like National Geographic. Kodachrome X was in the second generation of the emulsion, sold between 1962 and 1973. It was replaced by Kodachrome 64.
I already have several Film Simulation Recipes for this era of Kodachrome, depending on the sensor generation of your Fujifilm camera:

These Kodachrome Film Simulation Recipes can also be found in the Fuji X Weekly App, available for Android and Apple, along with nearly 300 other Recipes for Fujifilm cameras!

In this video, I compare the AI Recipe to my Kodachrome II v2 Recipe, which is intended for X-Trans IV cameras-I made it compatible with my Fujifilm X-T5 by setting Color Chrome FX Blue to Off.
How do you think ChatGPT did? Which Film Simulation Recipe is better? Let me know!

My opinion is that this Kodachrome X Film Simulation Recipe made by ChatGPT is nice looking, but it isn't great for replicating the film that it is supposed to. I think it is closer to Ektachrome E100VS, which was Kodak's best attempt at Velvia 50, made between 1999 and 2012, and is known for its vibrant colors. No color film made in the 1960's was as brightly saturated as the rendering of this AI Recipe. Kodachrome X, while vibrant for its time, was much more true-to-life, and not nearly as colorful as this. I also disagree with Grain set to Strong, among other things.
