Artificial intelligence systems (AI) touch nearly every facet of human activity. The prevalence of AI raises critical questions about how historians will study the contemporary era and mitigate distortion and bias while also harnessing its analytic potential. This roundtable considers the epistemological, methodological, and pedagogical implications of AI on historical practice.
