A new artificial intelligence model, Aeneas, developed by Google DeepMind and academic collaborators, is revolutionizing the study of ancient Roman inscriptions.
This AI tool can predict missing words in fragmented Latin texts, accurately date and attribute inscriptions, and provide crucial context that was previously lost to time. Historians working with Aeneas have seen their accuracy in interpreting inscriptions increase by 44%, and the model has already revealed new insights into famous texts like the Res Gestae Divi Augusti. The technology is being hailed as transformative for the humanities, enabling researchers to reconstruct and understand the daily life, legal systems, and imperial messaging of ancient Rome.
This marks a significant leap in how AI can assist in filling historical gaps and deepening our understanding of human history.
