A new artificial intelligence model, Aeneas, developed by Google DeepMind and academic collaborators, is transforming the study of ancient Roman inscriptions.
The AI can predict missing words in fragmented Latin texts, accurately date inscriptions, and provide historical context, significantly improving historians' ability to interpret these artifacts. Historians working with Aeneas saw their accuracy increase by 44%, and the tool has already revealed new insights into famous inscriptions like the Res Gestae Divi Augusti. This technology promises to fill major gaps in our understanding of Roman history and daily life, accelerating discoveries that would have taken years using traditional methods.
The breakthrough demonstrates the powerful synergy between AI and the humanities, opening new frontiers in historical research.
