When talking about #OCR / #HTR / #ATR and #OldNorse I’ve been often asked whether LLMs and VLMs aren’t going to take away β€œour jobsβ€œ. Well, as much I’d love them to, the #digitalhumanities hackathon last wk demonstrated that we’re nowhere near yet. @ecoledeschartes.bsky.social @psl-univ.bsky.social
