📜 Today, we’re publishing our latest work in Nature introducing Aeneas, the first AI model for connecting the past.
Our new state-of-the-art AI model Aeneas transforms how historians connect the past. 📜. Ancient inscriptions often lack context – it's like solving a puzzle with 90% of the pieces lost to time. It helps researchers interpret and situate inscriptions in their past context. 🧵
