Reposted by HannahAlyssa S. @drsepinwall.bsky.social · 29/03/2026LLMs do not write “history” & cannot do new historical research. Historical research might become a dead art… But that will come from closings of departments & slashings of research grants… not from bots summarizing what’s already known. 27616
Reposted by HannahEmily Higgs Kopin @ehkopin.bsky.social · 20/03/2026I care deeply, DEEPLY, about archival silences. I think reliance on automated crawling of web resources is only shifting the hegemony instead of addressing the frameworks. Who's not online? What's not online? What never will be and/or never should be? 2404
