Sverige måste komma ihåg vem den verkliga fienden är, skriver Hedda Ljunggren, ordförande för Rebella Unga S-Kvinnor.
Magdalena Andersson borde vara mer som Katniss Everdeen
Sverige måste komma ihåg vem den verkliga fienden är.

So, um... this is bad. Really bad. I looked at the letters that were translated by the AI, and the very first one I found was almost entirely hallucination. Thread:
Sarah E. Bond@sarahebond.bsky.social · 8mo agoThe new project mapping 7,000+ ancient letters is impressive: romanletters.org . The database & geolocation (although noting Pleiades rather than just AWMC would be nice) are great. But I absolutely cannot get over use of AI—however transparent—for translation. 🚨 Value human translators 🚨
It is *almost* like a very context-dependent technical skill that people take a lifetime in honing which requires intense and specific domain knowledge cannot be replicated by a badly-designed autocomplete! Whomst could have guessed!

Puzzle for 17thC researchers. Never-married woman from a not-rich family is claimed, by a shocked bro seeking letters of administration after her death in 1670s, to be LOADED. What feasible ways could this have happened at the time? No rich relatives or wealthy connections that we know of. 👇

Also, no pictures because there was a ban. It was refreshing to actually see a gig without a sea of screens. And the one person in the audience who had the temerity of filming Moran, immediately became part of a skit. This is the way.
