Date: 4 June<\/strong>\u00a02026 (Tuesday) Registration: required, first come first served.<\/strong> Please register by sending an email to arthist@hku.hk. This workshop introduces AI-assisted research and digital methods for art historians. Drawing on Provenance Wiki<\/a>, a prototype digital tool for processing archival documents, the workshop demonstrates how AI can help organize evidence, extract structured information, generate research questions, and visualize relationships among objects, people, places, and institutions. Participants will also engage with the broader issue of AI fluency: how to understand what AI tools can and cannot do, how to evaluate their outputs, and how digital workflows can be integrated into humanistic research without replacing scholarly interpretation. No technical knowledge or prior experience with AI is required.<\/p>\n Speaker:<\/strong> Mengge Cao is the postdoctoral scholar at the Center for the Art of East Asia, Department of Art History, University of Chicago.
