We discussed at dinner yesterday that surprisingly few of the papers at #dhnb2026 explicitly discuss the ethics of llms & generative ai. But this morning, David Alfter's presentation does a very thorough job of explaining how they used chat-gpt. #digitalhumanities
Man in front of slide saying "E-motion: binary systems versus fluid identities".

#DHNB2026 New valuable infrastructure for the humanities! Best part: you only need cooperation with a swede ;)

Good presentation on the noise of digital humanities data.
Traditional Quantitative social science work with information from surveys etc and have developed methods to account for this because they are a priori known....
Digital humanities data on the other hand...
#DHNB2026
Open Access as guiding principle for making art collections available and accessible.
Special focus on creating keywords to enrich the data in many different ways making it more searchable to users, including human enrichment.

#DHNB2026 Workshop: Lost in Noise
Good talks on how we work with creating systematic evaluations of LLM-based data analysis. This is vital part of humanities research now ...
Question for the future: will there be a time where we can automatically trust results performed by LLM-based analyses?

Very good keynote at today's workshop at @dhnb.bsky.social #DHNB2026
Bottom line: our main challenge is that there is a lot of research questions we cannot answer, because of lack of access to data, lack of quality of data, or simply lack of data.
Call open #DHNB2026 Workshop "Infrastructures to reassemble" we welcome inspiring stories unveiling access points and research processes for scattered cultural heritage data across borders, domains or media to build effective data life cycles in DH.
