Lost pronunciation in oracle bones: AI traces the mystery of ancient Chinese characters
AI 3-line summary
- The ancient pronunciation of oracle bone script has been lost, and AI is now being used as a tool to trace this mystery by analysing character shapes, context and fragment matching, and by comparing Chinese readings.
- Chinese research institutes and IT companies are applying AI models to Shang Dynasty oracle bones from more than 3,000 years ago to infer the meaning of undeciphered characters.
- The Dongyi origin theory, which holds that the element 'hun' in words such as 'wind' is a trace of an ancient pronunciation, is a hypothesis rather than an established fact, and AI is a tool for testing it.
