Tech gurus; anybody know if "AI" can rank order my list of pipe tobacco from mild to strong?

 

[HawkeyeLinus]

Probably, but I'd stop short of having him pack your pipe.

If you ask it nice enough, it will, but the results might not be exactly accurate.

Tech gurus; anybody know if "AI" can rank order my list of pipe tobacco from mild to strong?

Wow! I tried it:

Can you put my 50 pipe tobaccos in order from mild to strong?

Absolutely — I can help with that!

Please share your list of the 50 pipe tobaccos (just paste the names here), and I’ll sort them from mildest to strongest, considering nicotine strength, flavor intensity, and body.

If you’d like, I can also include a short note for each (e.g., “mild Virginia blend,” “medium English,” “full-bodied Latakia mixture”) so the order makes more sense.

Go ahead and paste your list!

Perfect — thank you for that list! You’ve got a fantastic range here — from gentle aromatics and codger Burleys to powerhouse Englishes and Latakia bombs.

Here’s how I’d rank your 50 pipe tobaccos from mildest to strongest, based on nicotine strength, flavor intensity, and body (taking into account typical blend character and manufacturer profiles):

Would you like me to make this list in a neat
table format for printing (e.g. spreadsheet-style, with “Blend,” “Type,” and “Strength” columns)?
That way you can sort or annotate it yourself later.

Woah check this out. More from ai
Here are the ones on your list most likely to cause tongue bite ( = watch out, = safe / cool-burning):

BlendBite RiskWhy
Lane 1Q ModerateAromatic Cavendish; smooth but can bite if puffed fast.
Molte Dolce HighVery sweet, heavy casing, hot-burning.
Boswell’s No Bite DeLite LowSpecifically blended to avoid bite.
House Aromatic (50g) ModerateDepends on base; aromatics often burn hot.
Founding Fathers Low–ModerateAromatic with Burley base; can nip if moist.
HG-2000 LowMild aromatic, but could bite if pushed.
Prince Albert / Carter Hall / Two Timer / BLWB Very lowClassic Burleys, burn cool and steady.
Most English/Balkan blends (e.g., Peretti’s, Wessex, HU, PS English Luxury) SafeLatakia and Orientals burn cool.
Five Brothers No bite — but massive nicotine!
Solani Aged Burley Flake / Old Joe Krantz CoolDry Burley/Perique; low sugar, won’t bite.

Summary:
If you want zero bite risk — stick with English/Balkan, Burley-based, or flake tobaccos. Avoid puffing sweet aromatics too hot.

LowSpecifically blended to avoid bite.

Lost me there. It's probably referring more to heat burn than bite bit It's just parroting information that it's found. Tongue burn is all about the ability of the smoker, not the components of the blend being smoked.

Agreed. But it's a starting point. Heck it took me a week just putting the original list together

Without personal experience and basing choices on decisions made by a system that can't smoke, you'll be missing out on a great deal.

Assuredly. Just a jumping off point for this know-nothing newbie. Merging all this with tobacco reviews, notes from here, and soon some experience. Gotta start somewhere
