AI 翻译古代文献:Oxyrhynchus 纸草等大量未译文本可获初步解读
Mollick 提了个有意思的思路:拿资助资金让 AI 先把 Oxyrhynchus 纸草这类未译古籍过一遍,不只翻译还能做初步解读。
Ethan Mollick 提出,可以用资助项目推动 AI 处理各地积压的未翻译古代文献,例如埃及 Oxyrhynchus 纸草文库。他认为当前 AI 模型已能对文本做出初步的释读与意义分析,而不只是字面翻译。这类项目可以先由 AI 完成第一遍处理,再由人类学者复核。
A bunch of funded projects to unblock some long-standing backlogs in translations using AI would be interesting; especially when AI models can do a reasonable first pass at interpretation & significance, not just translation. There are major repositories of untranslated ancient work in many places, like the Oxyrhynchus Papyri https://t.co/JenjZhd4wx
