At this year's conference ‘Digital Humanities im deutschsprachigen Raum 2025’ (‘Digital Humanities in German-speaking regions in 2025’) from 3 to 7 March 2025 in Bielefeld, the IEG will again be represented with several contributions from its researchers: On Monday (3 March), 2.30–5.30 p.m., the workshop ‘(De-)constructing the Lab: Arbeiten in den DH’ (‘(De-)constructing the Lab: Working in the DH’) by Fabian Cremer (IEG), Swantje Dogunke (Friedrich Schiller University Jena), Marten Düring (Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital History (C²DH)), Anna Neubert (Bielefeld University) and Thorsten Wübbena (IEG) will take place in HSBI B441. On Thursday (6 March), 11.00 a.m.–12.30 p.m., there will be a panel in HSBI E3 on ‘More than Chatbots: Multimodel Large Language Models in geisteswissenschaftlichen Workflows’ (‘More than Chatbots: Multimodel Large Language Models in Humanities Workflows’) by Sarah Oberbichler (IEG), Christopher Pollin (Digital Humanities Craft OG), Nina C. Rastinger (Austrian Centre for Digital Humanities and Cultural Heritage, Austrian Academy of Sciences), Stefanie Schneider (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich), Johanna Störiko (Georg August University of Göttingen) and Ralph Ewerth (TIB - Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology, Hannover; Leibniz University Hannover). This panel explores the integration of generative AI, in particular Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) and Large Vision Models (LVMs), in humanities research workflows. Given the rapid development of AI technology, there are both opportunities and challenges for the digital humanities. The discussion will focus on the effective implementation of these models, increasing research efficiency and shifting the focus from technical data processing to analysis and interpretation. The speakers will present case studies on the creation of image corpora, text annotation, qualitative data analysis and art historical retrieval using AI models and will also discuss possible consequences and drawbacks of AI integration in humanities research practices and their impact on workflow reusability. The panel will include interactive elements for audience participation and promote a comprehensive dialogue on future directions of AI in humanities research. A poster entitled ‘Kleine Formate, große Chancen: Pragmatische Fördermodelle als Katalysator für die DH in NFDI4Memory und HERMES’ (‘Small formats, big opportunities: Pragmatic funding models as a catalyst for DH in NFDI4Memory and HERMES’) was also submitted to the conference by Constanze Buyken (IEG), Judit Garzón Rodríguez (IEG) and Fabian Cremer (IEG). The poster will be presented at the conference on Thursday (6 March), 4.00 p.m.–5.30 p.m. in HSBI Magistrale.
