Data Meets Meaning: AI and Text Analysis in ANSO
How do we make sense of meaning in an era of data abundance?
And what can AI-driven text analysis bring to anthropological and sociological research?
Join us for our next ANSO Hangout — a relaxed conversation space where students host faculty, peers, and alumni to exchange experiences, ask questions, and open up what research and life at the Institute are really like.
This time, we’re delighted to welcome Prof. Jean-Philippe Cointet, Researcher at the Centre for Digital Humanities and Multilateralism, who will share his work at the intersection of AI, computational text analysis, and the study of meaning.
He’ll talk about how digital tools and qualitative inquiry can complement each other, the promises and limitations of AI for social science, and how students can start integrating computational approaches into their own research.
It’s a great opportunity to see how data and interpretation meet in practice, explore new methodological horizons, and discuss the evolving role of AI in ANSO.
No need to be formal. Just bring your curiosity.
