This special event will simultaneously unveil the full release of the Digitizing Vietnam multi-functional Digital Humanities (DH) Hub and AI platform, as well as hold a series of critical workshops interfacing DH and AI specialists with experts in various disciplines of Vietnamese Studies in order to gauge need, efficacy, and limits of the field.
