Following the most recent developments in AI is sort of a job in itself. The fixed pleasure generally feels virtually bewildering, and it leaves us a bit of room to essentially get caught into peculiarities and joys of knowledge and AI strategies and instruments rising in Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM).

Gethin Rees will inform us about his work that’s partaking public with geospatial knowledge and within the course of bettering our capabilities to find nationwide collections.
BL Labs are devoted to opening up the British Library’s knowledge, particularly for all researchers who wish to use it for several types of computational analysis. This stays a frightening job. However we’ve got been engaged on it! Silvija Aurylaite, BL Labs Supervisor, will share the BL Labs path of journey, together with sharing our new BL Labs web site in Beta. The location can be reside for the primary time, with the Symposium viewers kicking off our testing and engagement part.
