Greet by the DHNB Association chair @jiemakel.bsky.social. The essence of this conference is to come together overcome our shyness and meet researchers from different disciplines and cultural heritage organisations, something at the heart of #DHNB2025 already since its beginnings in 2016

A great first day at @dhnb.bsky.social Jesper Enbom did a great presentation on the “grey divide”, I got lots of valuable feedback on my paper, got to play around at the museum and listen to great music! What’s not to love? ❤️ #dhnb2025

Anne Agersnap highlighting the relevance on integrating human expertise in computational studies or Human-In-The-Loop approach and demonstrating its use in studying conceptual history by the workgroup at the Grundtvig Study Centre of Aarhus University. #DHNB2025 #LP01

Eero Hyvönen introducing the LetterSampo, Finnish letters data service and semantic portal, project work of processing the data, and making the data #fair, as well as the outlooks what could be done with well-organized and accessible data by combining metadata and content analysis. #dhnb2025 #LP01

Discussing @dhnb.bsky.social how asking a question to a chatbot vs. a 'simple' google search generates ~ 10x more emissions and how this could be annotated on AI generated material?

Anyone looking for guidance in how to help students navigate content-generating AI should get the team from the DH institute at Riga Technical University to come and give their presentation 💪 @dhnb.bsky.social Huge applause from all assembled!

Thought-provoking take on AI-human collaboration: content is anonymous (/stolen?), like it was in the oral tradition, where content was generated anew at every performance. AI generates a new version with every page refresh. Talk by Platonova, Smirnova, Seņko, Ivanova at @dhnb.bsky.social

Henna Poikkimäki presenting the results of project on correspondence networks in Finnish letter heritage, shifting focus from egocentric approach towards sociocentric ones. Nice graph on how much women and men send letters to each other. Article journal.uio.no/dhnbpub/article/view/12289 #dhnb2025

Maciej Eder stating some honest truths in his "Text analysis is easy, unless it is not" keynote address @dhnb.bsky.social: "humanists tend to overestimate numbers, plots and maps. Hard scientists tend to underestimate language variation" — It's a match... 💘
