Investigating Expert-in-the-Loop LLM Discourse Patterns for Ancient Intertextual Analysis
Umphrey, Ray, Roberts, Jesse, Roberts, Lindsey
This study explores the potential of large language models (LLMs) for identifying and examining intertextual relationships within biblical, Koine Greek texts. By evaluating the performance of LLMs on various intertextuality scenarios the study demonstrates that these models can detect direct quotations, allusions, and echoes between texts. The LLM's ability to generate novel intertextual observations and connections highlights its potential to uncover new insights. However, the model also struggles with long query passages and the inclusion of false intertextual dependences, emphasizing the importance of expert evaluation. The expert-in-the-loop methodology presented offers a scalable approach for intertextual research into the complex web of intertextuality within and beyond the biblical corpus.

Terminally-ill scientist completes transformation into 'world's first cyborg'
A terminally-ill British scientist dying from a muscle wasting disease says has fully completed his transition into the world's first full cyborg - called Peter 2.0. Dr Peter Scott-Morgan, 61, decided to challenge what it meant to be human when he refused to accept his fate following a diagnosis of motor neurone disease in 2017. He said he wanted to push the boundaries of what science can achieve so decided to extend his life and become fully robotic . And this week the world-renowned roboticist returned to his home in Torquay, Devon, after 24 days in Intensive Care, with all medical procedures now complete and able to begin his re-booted life. But the evolution of his machine-like existence doesn't end there - and he joked he had more upgrades scheduled than Microsoft.

Doctor with terminal motor neurone disease completes his transition into 'world's first cyborg'
A terminally-ill British scientist dying from a muscle wasting disease says has fully completed his transition into the world's first full CYBORG -- called'Peter 2.0'.

Terminally-ill scientist is about to 'transform' into world's first full cyborg
A terminally-ill scientist who is dying from a muscle wasting disease has taken the final steps to become the world's first full cyborg . Dr Peter Scott-Morgan, 61, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease two years ago, but instead of accepting his fate he decided to challenge what it meant to be human. He said he wanted to push the boundaries of what science can achieve so decided to extend his life and become fully robotic - known as Peter 2.0. The world-renowned roboticist has already undergone a series of incredibly complex and risky operations during his journey. This has included developing a remarkably life-like avatar of his face before he lost any muscle.
Doctor diagnosed with terminal motor neurone disease hopes to become world's first cyborg
A scientist who is dying from a muscle wasting disease is taking drastic steps in his bid to become the world's first true cyborg. Dr Peter Scott-Morgan, 61, from Torquay, Devon, was diagnosed with motor neurone disease two years ago and told it would only take until this year to kill him. But instead of accepting his fate he decided to challenge what it meant to be human and now hopes to create Peter 2.0. He is gradually replacing his bodily functions with machinery – an electric wheelchair now enables to him to be upright, sitting or laid down; he has banked his voice on a computer and had his voicebox removed; and is fed through a tube and has a catheter and colostomy bag attached so he doesn't eat or excrete. Dr Scott-Morgan shared the photo on social media with the caption: 'This is my last post as Peter 1.0.
