Join hosts Maddie Feldman and Ollie Braden as they sit down with Professor Meredith Martin, Faculty Director of Princeton’s Center for Digital Humanities.

This conversation explores how we search, interpret, and make meaning in an increasingly data-driven world. Professor Martin challenges the idea that data is neutral and that search equals knowledge, unpacking how digital tools shape both what we see and what we miss. We discuss the Princeton Prosody Archive, the limits of large language models, historians of the future, and why the humanities remain essential for understanding meaning in an AI-mediated age.
