AI is playing a key part in reshaping and developing businesses, and in improving people’s daily lives. Different concepts, tools and technologies that use algorithms—such as blockchain, machine and deep learning, natural language processing, generative AI, etc.—are beginning to show exciting possibilities that will support and optimise human intelligence. If guided by an ethical and responsible approach, this field can offer numerous rewards.

AI provides a wide range of new tools for historical research

• The development of MapReader, a computer vision tool for the semantic exploration and processing of historical maps, is just one of many initiatives taking advantage of new possibilities afforded by artificial intelligence (AI) in historical research.
• In France, AI and cryptography experts working on Inria’s Back In Time project are unlocking the secrets of encrypted historical documents that will soon be accessible to researchers.
• Innovation made possible by AI is accelerating the pace of research in human sciences and encouraging researchers to rethink methods used for the analysis of historical sources.
