Good luck with AI without humanities, UK.

Why would we want to learn from our pasts, or ponder the power of the written and spoken word, or explore the deep questions of humanity? According to the University of Hertfordshire, we wouldn't. They've just cut all of our undergrad Humanities programmes

It's really quite lovely having a physical copy, but for anyone interested here's a doi for my little bit: doi.org/10.37307/j.1...

It's hard to do satire of a field that is continually self-satiring, but this is a valiant attempt: puregenius.education

Benjamin wrote his "Theses on the Philosophy of History" in 1940, shortly before he died by suicide escaping the Nazis. Imagine, now, Hannah Arendt reading this aloud to fellow refugees fleeing the Third Reich on the ship that was smuggling them to the U.S.

One of the more important tables imo. Pleased to see BCU moving in the right direction on this table - up to 7th place this year.
I hope UCU can successfully fight this! As an English student at Leicester I benefitted from both modern languages and film studies modules and had friends in both degree programmes. Arts & Hum was such a vibrant community when I was there and these are valuable subjects worth fighting for!
Very excited at what just dropped through the letter box! It's the @vpfa.bsky.social special issue of Archiv (including a contribution from yours truly).
Well this really didn't take long did it. I also feel like the headline could be clear this is not a run-of-the-mill misdemeanor, this is someone promoting Hitler's Nazi party in 2026. BBC News - Sheffield Reform UK councillor 'brought party into disrepute' - BBC News www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Recently, FamilySearch digitized and uploaded tons of microfilmed records, including many from 18th-century Massachsuetts. They're using some sort of AI to transcribe/summarize the handwritten documents. I've noticed that the AI strips out references to race and enslavement in 18thc documents.
