For more on this power struggle, check out these articles by Mellado Rodríguez: Veladas discrepancias y pugna por el poder en el III Concilio de Toledo (2001-2002) and Leandro y Gregorio Magno ¿solo lecciones de humildad para la soberbia de Recaredo? (2002).

This AI-generated video animates the famous painting of Reccared's conversion. While the animation might seem more direct than the Bishop was in real life, the corrective message remains. AI allows us to see history in movement!

Congratulations to the conference coordinators for organising such an enriching event, which showcased the work of these young researchers.

The results, which will soon be published in an article that we will tell you about, show a general improvement in the AI's response level between the two phases, and what is even better, that there is still ample room for improvement.

In his contribution entitled “El Enfoque Más Actual: La IA BADDO y su Interpretación del Cristianismo Godo” Alfonso presented results from the two phases of the project that involved testing our AI.

French historian Emmanuel Le Roy said it back in 1968: “The historian of tomorrow will be a programmer, or he will not exist.”

The possibilities of AI pose quite a challenge, and although there is some scepticism regarding its use, everything points to the fact that, over time, more and more researchers will make use of these tools.
November 8, 2025 at 5:28 PM
However, the use of AI is not without risks, as Artificial Intelligence itself could introduce errors, biases or even falsifications. The judgement and criteria of a historian remain essential.

And, of course, the BADDO project focused on the creation of Artificial Intelligence specialising in Late Antiquity religion and its modern reception, specifically Arianism and the conversion of the Visigoths to Catholicism.

The Venice Time Machine Project, run by the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Ca’ Foscari, and the State Archives of Venice, undertook the task of digitising a collection of Venetian archives spanning a thousand years.

CorDeepl from the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science has worked on a neural network capable of classifying document content that includes numerical and alphanumeric tables, and locating, extracting, and classifying visual elements.

Some noteworthy projects that include the use of Artificial Intelligence applied to historical research are: The Ithaca neural network, developed by DeepMind, trained to reconstruct missing instructions or even attribute dates and locations to texts.

As Moira Donovan pointed out in a 2023 publication, the use of these tools allows for the processing of a greater amount of information than would be possible with individual analysis.
