The Intersection of Data Science and Humanities, join us as we dive into the innovative research of Dr. Abraham Liddell, a historian and data scientist whose work merges GIS, machine learning, and historical records to reconstruct powerful stories from the past. We unpack how Dr. Liddell tracks social networks and mobility of free and enslaved Africans in the Spanish Caribbean and West Africa. Learn about the ethical considerations in handling historical data, the transformative potential of generative AI, and Dr. Liddell's vision for a perfect world where technology enhances community life rather than just serving capitalist interests.
