RiksarkivetRiksarkivet gör en miljon handskrivna dokument sökbaraI ett banbrytande steg mot att göra historisk information i arkiven mer tillgänglig har Riksarkivet gjort över en miljon handskrivna dokument till sökbar text med hjälp av artificiell intelligens.
One of my history teachers at uni said -- only about five years ago, referring specially to Riksarkivet -- that this is something that might never be possible.
Also makes me feel a bit better about not quite getting hang of reading the Swedish scribes' handwriting. I could KIND OF do it in Finnish and English, but Swedish was always a coin toss.
