They are not saying they don't want to see the manuscript solved. They just don't want any submissions belonging to the genre "solutions", which are basically creative writing exercises. This is absolutely the right call.
That is truly the right call and understandable. Since we cannot agree on simple things on this forum, how shall we recognize a solution anyway? But this rule here, is the best decision, the orga team could made up:"AI Policy
- The use of generative AI to write any part of an article’s text or notes or to generate ideas is strictly prohibited
- AI cannot be considered an author of submitted works, as AI tools cannot take ethical or legal responsibility for their output or enter into legal agreements
- If prohibited AI use is discovered, even after an article has been accepted, the article will not be published and the offence will be treated as plagiarism
- Authors must fully disclose and cite their use of any content created by AI tools in their manuscripts at the time of submission. This includes data, images, figures, or any other type of content
- Authors must accept full responsibility for accuracy, originality, and citation of content created using generative AI systems, including factual and citation accuracy
- Hi Software that assists with grammar, spelling, or translation of your own words is not considered generative AI and doesn’t require disclosure."
And for that, I am really excited now and as well looking forward to the keynote speakers regarding this agenda topic:
"Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques applied to the Voynich Manuscript", of course done and presented without any use of AI. To anybody that can deliver here, your are allready my king or queen. What a quest.
But I love the other topics too. This conference will set some new standards in science. Can't wait to learn more about:
" - History of the Voynich Manuscript (historical approaches, ciphers).
- Natural Language Processing techniques applied to the Voynich Manuscript.
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques applied to the Voynich Manuscript.
- Image Processing of the Voynich Manuscript folios.
- Works around whether or not it is a hoax, a natural language, or enciphered.
- Works that draw on methods from Digital Humanities.
Thank you all for organizing such a wonderful event. Keep on going, it is not easy to check so many research papers for quality and organize all of this. I hope the guest register link will be provided soon. And a full agenda of course.
@Koen: Congratulations. I just noticed that you got a call as new Programme Committee Member for this conference. What is your role there? Are you a jury member or a key note speaker?
