Conclusion
The construction of expert systems in particular illustrates how difficult it is to transmit to an information system the knowledge found in a human expert. But those historians and other medievalists who are used to studying the transmission of ancient works and their diffusion perhaps will be able to provide us with several systematic tracks. And it would not be one of the minor advantages of artificial intelligence to generate closer collaboration between computer scientists and medievalists.
