Will #AI replace us? 🤖 I told a room of PA authorities that AI already replaced me. Data agents now automate pipelines I spent 5 years building. The result? I have more time to train and teach. AI isn't taking jobs—it's shifting value from tech skills to human ones. ✨

web search #data show that queries about ideologies had a regular pattern util 2019. Now, AI search causes web traffic to human-written sites to collapse. This is how LLMs will have disruptive impact on #collectivememory
At #ecai: LLMs reflect their culture (e.g., Chinese LLMs see more autocracy than US ones). #academicsky: while unbiased models are possible, adoption is the issue—people prefer "like-minded" AI. The question: Should the EU mandate models like Mistral to protect our culture?
#LLMs larger than 400 B parameters agree better than humans do in interpreting #history. Llama3.1-large is also very consistent when run repeatedly. PAPER (eng) -> github.com/facells/fabi... #academicsky #digitalhumanities Blog (ita) open.substack.com/pub/fabiocel...
La storiografia ai tempi dell'IA
Eseguendo uno stesso prompt, i Large Language Models sono in grado di annotare la storia in modo replicabile e valutabile in modo quantitativo. Questo cambia tutto.

tools like AI Overview are transforming web search, increasing reliance on generated answers. This is impacting historical memory, as models like GPT4 can generate distortions. We created a benchmark to study how #LLMs interpret history. #academicsky #clic-it2025 #NLP
🚔 #Crime has a rhythm — can we decode its beat? In a new study co-authored by CSH's @rafaelprietocuriel.bsky.social, 12 years of detailed crime data reveal relatively stable temporal “heartbeats” for different crime types over time. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

La storia con i dati: la Grande Narrazione dei politeismi
Con i politeismi le società diventano più grandi e con più istituzioni (ad esempio la legge). Questa complessità si diffonde tra le società in modo esponenziale.

I worked a lot with Process Mining this year, so today I release Learnipy v0.10, enriched with some algorithms for extracting petri net, heuristic net and BPMN from data. Enjoy. #datascience #academicsky #opensource github.com/facells/lear...

#LLMs are excellent for historical analysis, but their single-source nature leaves them vulnerable to #manipulation or censorship. That's why comparing historical data annotated by LLMs and humans is essential for fostering critical awareness of bias. 👉 www.mdpi.com/2079-9292/13...
A couple of weeks ago I presented this paper on the extraction of historical structured knowledge from Large Language Models at the conference on digital libraries. The paper is now available! ceur-ws.org/Vol-3937/pap... It was a very nice opportunity, Thaks to you all! #llm #academicSky
