Across the episodes

01

Enters as the Venice meeting where Syntopic's concerns, humane AI and provenance, were already on the agenda

Places the episode's core value in the heritage world: provenance as the concern of people protecting a continent's collective memory.

"Provenance was incredibly important in the discussions at the IEEE Cyber humanities Conference in Venice because they're dealing with protecting the collective memory, let's say, of Europe in the form of paintings, texts, recordings, you name it."

Frames heritage work as defense: the conference's concern is loss and corruption, which is where Syntopic places its own work on speech.

"So they don't want to lose the cultural memory. So there's all kinds of threats."
