Abstract Wikipedia,

Hello. I am recently thinking about objectivity and subjectivity with respect 
to natural language generation, in particular in the contexts of story 
generation using historical data [1][2].

In the near future, digital humanities scholars – in particular historians – 
could modify collections of data and finetune generation-related parameters, 
watching as resultant multimodal historical narratives emerged and varied. In 
these regards, we can envision both computer-aided and automated historical 
narrative generation tools and technologies.

Could AI be a long-sought objective narrator for historians? Is all narration, 
or all language use, inherently subjective? What might the nature of 
“generation-related parameters” and “finetuning” be for style and subjectivity 
[3][4][5][6][7][8] when generating natural language and multimodal historical 
narratives from historical data [1][2]?

Thank you. Hopefully, these topics are interesting.


Best regards,
Adam Sobieski
