Pottery analysis is a means of great importance in archaeological research, as the information it offers helps to better approach and interpret not only the objects themselves but also the archaeological settings they belong to (including domestic, administrative, religious, and funerary contexts) as well as the various activities of the ancient societies they are linked to. Studying pottery is a demanding task, since it is found in huge amounts at almost all excavation sites around the world and usually in fragments. The application of ICT tools over the recent decades fulfilled the need to record, manage, retrieve and analyze these data. Analytical techniques based on heterogeneous sources (such as drawings, photographs, 3D scans etc.) have been brought together, whereas the creation of pottery databases and digital repositories facilitates the ceramologists’ work to manage the plethora of information they deal with as well as to proceed to their pottery-based interpretations. Furthermore, archaeometric approaches have become over the years a powerful set of analytical tools that allow a deep understanding of the processes of manufacture, the provenance and the use of pottery. Chemical, structural, petrographic analysis and the study of organic residues from ceramic objects have revealed a hidden world allowing us to understand their biography. Our session aims to move forward through a fruitful dialogue between the different research paths that Digital Archaeology and Archaeometry have developed for the study of ancient ceramics on one hand and major archaeological questions about past human societies on the other. This session will try to put emphasis on the synergistic effects of ICT tools, scientific approaches, and Archaeology to enhance our knowledge about ancient pottery and shed light into daily life, special events and contact networks in Greece and adjacent areas (Italy, Balkans, Eastern-Mediterranean) from Prehistory until the end of Late Antiquity.

AI Based Terrorism by Sanindu Fonseka, 2024
Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used to predict potential terrorist attacks by analyzing patterns in historical data, social media activity, and other intelligence sources. AI can also assess the behavior of individuals or groups to identify signs of radicalization and intervene before attacks happen. AI-based terrorism is a complex and evolving phenomenon that raises serious concerns about the intersection of advanced technology and national security. As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance at a rapid pace, there is a growing potential for malicious actors, including terrorist organizations, to exploit AI tools and techniques for various nefarious purposes. In this essay, we will explore the concept of AI-based terrorism, the potential risks and challenges it presents, and the efforts being made to mitigate these threats

French : Les controverses autour de l’usage des écrans placent les parents et les acteurs du système éducatif dans une situation bien délicate, autour d’une même question : doit-on favoriser l’usage des écrans ou au contraire lutter contre eux, voire les interdire ? De nombreux détracteurs et prescripteurs cherchent à définir les bons et les mauvais usages des écrans, à les quantifier, à les localiser dans un espace-temps adapté ou simplement à les rendre moins exclusifs, au profit d’autres activités jugées « plus saines » (sports, sorties, arts…). Existe-t-il un juste usage du numérique et pour cela, l’École doit-elle jouer un rôle ? Nous consacrerons une première partie à définir le contexte de cette nouvelle socialisation hyperconnectée. La deuxième partie s’intéressera à l’École et à l’intégration du numérique éducatif. En troisième partie, nous étudierons le concept de culture numérique pour conclure en ouvrant le débat autour d’un juste usage du numérique, d’un usage écologique du numérique. English : The controversy about the use of screens places parents and educators in a sensitive situation on the question of whether we should promote or oppose the use of screens or even forbid using them. Several opponents and proponents are trying to define and quantify the right and wrong uses of screens, to place screen use in an adapted time and space or simply to screen-gazing less exclusive for the sake of other activities, which are deemed healthier (sports, arts…). Is there a balanced use of digital technology? What role should schools have? After describing this new hyperconnected form of socialization, focus is shifted to schools and the integration of educational digital technology. The concept of a digital culture is examined to conclude by opening a discussion on the balanced and ecological use of this technology.
