Keynote by @laurenfklein.bsky.social! 🎉 "When Theory Leads: Towards a Humanities-Forward Model of Computational Research" This talk is a response to the idea that humanities people can only contribute to LLMs by improving model output as "AI tutors," "prompt engineers," "consultants." #chr2024

🎥 Sneak Peek: Lauren Klein at #CHR2024 Don’t miss @laurenfklein.bsky.social’s keynote speech titled "When Theory Leads: Towards a Humanities-Forward Model of Computational Research" at 9 o’clock this morning! 🕘

✨ Kicking off #CHR2024 in style! ✨ Last night, we launched the conference with an Opening Reception in the special decor of the Museum of Ancient Art at Aarhus University. Dean Maja Horst delivered a speech to mark the occasion. Huge thanks to everyone who made this event a success! 🌟

#CHR turns 5! 🎂 From meeting in Gather Town during Covid, to our first in-person meet in Antwerp, Paris, and now Aarhus - watching our community grow has been incredible! #CHR2024 opens today with our strongest program yet. Big shoutout to our brilliant PC and LO! Looking forward seeing you all!

Very excited to share a long paper that Jamie Mahowald and I have at this year’s @comphumresearch.bsky.social! We built out interactive search for 562,842 map images from the Library of Congress, supporting natural language inputs, visual inputs, and multimodal inputs: ceur-ws.org/Vol-3834/pap...
