Use generative AI to generate explanation of elements #154

As you know, charges have symbology behind them, as do the colors, patterns, and even lines. It would be awesome to have a curated dictionary of these and use generative AI to provide an explanation of the arms, and what they traditionally symbolize. I have a database (or a spreadsheet at least) of such definitions, if you find this intriguing.

In heraldry don't have some defined meaning, only the COA author knows it's meaning and COA is always open for interpretation. So I would rather not do it and allow users to define meanings themself.

Fair enough, but one could always say, "These are the traditional meaning ascribed to these heraldic elements, which are provided for ideation and context only. Hopefully, it will inspire you to assign your own meanings to the arms generated with Armorial."
