| 6:00pm - 6:15pm | Opening Ceremony Location: Aud B1 (TB) |
| 6:15pm - 7:00pm | Keynote: Automating the past: Artificial Intelligence and the next frontiers of Digital History. Javier Cha (The University of Hong Kong) Location: Aud B1 (TB) This keynote explores the impact that transformer-based machine learning brings to the interpretive work of historians. As historians increasingly encounter vast amounts of digitized and born-digital sources, the challenge has shifted to developing strategies for making sense of large, complex collections with the nuance that historical inquiry demands. The discussion begins with an earlier phase of my research, which aimed to engage in digitally mediated multiscale exploration (“digital (re)reading”) through graph queries and data reuse. Using structured and relatively unambiguous sources, such as biographical data modeled in Neo4j, this phase underscored the potential of digital historical research to uncover latent structures and reveal surprising connections in a manner that preserves the historian’s interpretive agency. |
