The title of a 2,000-year-old Greek philosophical text has been read by computer scientists using AI to study scrolls buried by the eruption of Vesuvius.
I’ve heard of similar tech being used to decipher text from the dead sea scrolls, it’s awesome to see these advances happening.
That’s amazing. It would be wonderful to decipher more of these scrolls.
Oh, they certainly will decipher more. It is an ongoing project, and they have already deciphered and published several previously lost titles by Philodemus.
