For my colleagues interested in the #historyofknowledge , museums, and ai in the humanities and higher ed.
“It is a misconception to think that museums are catalogues of objects … they should be seen as active epistemological agents where knowledge is created, contested, and circulated… It is striking how rarely museums appear in current critical debates on AI.” — from Jose-Carlos Mariátegui
