AI unlocks ancient text owned by Caesar's family (www.bbc.com)
 
 

Three students have won a $700,000 prize after using AI to read a 2,000-year-old scroll burnt during the Mount Vesuvius eruption in 79AD.

The ancient text was unreadable until now after being charred in the Roman town of Herculaneum during the same eruption that destroyed Pompeii.

It is thought to have belonged to Julius Caesar's father-in-law and talks of music and food.

Experts have called the breakthrough a "revolution" in Greek philosophy.
