even so, "user engagement" has forms tied to task success, to entertainment, to social connection, to habit, and to compulsion. collapsing them into a single scalar metric hides important differences in what users actually want from these systems. 25/26

Here at UMass Amherst CICS, we’re searching for TT faculty in NLP – see the link from www.cics.umass.edu/about/employ... I’m happy to answer questions of course, too!

A student is working on detecting gaps in text transcriptions. Does anyone in #DigiClass or beyond know of open transcriptions of ancient Greek inscriptions, in EpiDoc or otherwise, similar to papyri.info ? I've worked with literary texts and papyri, but I'm stumped on this.

Chap 5 of #ComputationalHumanities by Fabian Offert and Peter Bell is about image generation, cultural heritage, and what it means to fill in the gaps between images. It was done before diffusion models were big, but still has enduring insights! dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/projects/com...

Can anyone recommend a good text / source for sea monsters and imagined marine life in early modern period? Niche request. Cheers!

The basic problem is that the amount of money at stake in government decisions is vastly more than the amount of money it takes to influence those decisions

In Chap 4 of #ComputationalHumanities, Crystal Hall proposes parallax (looking at the same thing from two different angles) as a metaphor for how to interpret computational approaches. Tool variability can be a problem, but with intention it can be powerful! dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/projects/com...

It's great to see the #computationalhumanities DDH volume getting attention! We start with two essays about interpretation. In Chap 1, Hannah Ringler distinguishes tools and interpretations, asking with vs asking about. dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/projects/com...

This essay from @bschmidt.bsky.social on how history rejected computational methods, & so "quantitative history" ended up in the social sciences, & "digital humanities" in literature, with no historians doing computational work, is fascinating, & worth a read: dhdebates.gc.cuny.edu/read/computa...
