Would you like to learn how to use AI to explore and analyze your cultural heritage data? Or have you always wanted to learn how to code and perform data-driven analysis with a little help from cutting-edge tools? This workshop focus on the intersection of generative AI tools and the humanities, offering participants the opportunity to master the art of crafting effective prompts for AI tools like ChatGPT and see practical cases where prompting can be used to work with computational methodologies for example, achieving essential Python coding skills.
This workshop is organized as part of the Munin Conference on Scholarly Publishing. Registration for the conference is closed, but it is now possible to register for this workshop specifically.
The workshop will take place in Teorifagbygget House 1. For the room, check the conference programme.
Workshop facilitators: Barbara Romero Ferron and Chiara Livio (Utrecht University)
Emphasizing practical applications, the workshop is designed to enhance research, writing, and problem-solving in the humanities, providing attendees with the confidence to integrate these cutting-edge tools into their academic work.
Structured into two engaging sessions, the first focuses on the theory and practice of creating impactful AI prompts, while the second showcases practical samples of how to support humanities researchers and library specialists when starting working with computational methodologies, with a focus on real-world applications. Participants will also gain insights into ethical considerations, gender biases and decolonial perspectives and best practices related to the FAIR principles and open access, ensuring responsible and effective sharing and publication of their digital projects. The workshop promises an inclusive and supportive environment, tailored to both beginners and those seeking to refine their skills in prompting.
