We hope you have had a good start to the academic year. Take a moment to catch up on DISSINET's recent updates, including our reflections on working with LLMs, our summer activities, and a new online resource.
Large Language Models (LLMs) hold significant promise for extracting information from historical texts. If used appropriately, they can speed up the research process and help researchers achieve ambitious objectives in quantitative cultural history.
As part of DISSINET's corpus work, we have procured a transcription of the register of John Galand and William of Saint-Seine, 1283–1302, that we have made available in the Zenodo repository.
