If that's not enough to convince you, @nolauren.bsky.social/@taylor-arnold.bsky.social investigate pacing in 4,500 US sitcom episodes and Kaspar Beelen/Natasha Kitcher show us how we can link museum data with AI.

In the same session, @lorenverreyen.bsky.social presents a dataset of 412 days of automatically transcribed podcasts. Hugely important work that allows us to study podcasts w. techniques from comp lit studies and takes the next step in the multimodal turn in computational humanities.

This is great, I’d just add:
1. Another challenge is lack of serious engagement from AI researchers with humanities scholars.
2. This new work makes it sound like it just takes some finetuning to get big improvements.

🚨New paper on AI & copyright
Authors have sued LLM companies for using books w/o permission for model training.
Courts however need empirical evidence of market harm. Our preregistered study exactly addresses this gap.
Joint work w Jane Ginsburg from Columbia Law and @dhillonp.bsky.social 1/n🧵
