A computer science student has used artificial intelligence (AI) to decipher a badly charred and tightly rolled papyrus scroll unearthed in the Roman town of Herculaneum, which was buried in a volcanic disaster in AD 79. The AI technology was developed by developers and undergraduates, enabling them to read words from the ancient scroll, previously too delicate for human hands. This breakthrough has allowed the identification of Greek words in CT scans of the carbonized scrolls, providing valuable insights into the past.
