Study Notes
Oracle Bone Script
- Oldest form of Chinese writing known as 甲骨文.
- Characters consist of simple drawings or symbols, which differ significantly from modern Chinese.
- Provides insights into the evolution of the Chinese language and cultural practices.
AI in Archaeology
- Recent technology introduced in the study of oracle bone script.
- Engineers in Anyang, Henan, utilizing AI for research purposes.
Li Bang and His Team
- Li Bang, 33, serves as an AI scientist at Anyang Normal University.
- Development of a specialized online “library” containing images of oracle bones and relevant books.
Functionality of the Library
- AI programs constructed to analyze character shapes and retrieve information accurately.
- Users can input images of oracle bone characters, prompting AI to find similar characters and relevant literature in seconds.
- This process previously required several hours or even days for human researchers.
Limitations of AI
- While AI significantly aids in the identification of characters, it does not replace human expertise.
- AI excels in memory and data retrieval, yet struggles with complex reasoning and interpretation of meaning.
