The “Vesuvius Challenge” competition, claiming reward as AI mixed with human expertise, led to the deciphering of age-old scrolls. The scrolls were carbonised by a volcanic eruption 2000 years ago.
Among the ancient Greek words identified so far are ἀδιάληπτος (foolish), διατροπή (disgust), φοβ (fear), and βίου (life).
Scientists are leveraging a combination of artificial intelligence and X-rays to begin unraveling the mystery of the charred scrolls.
