A special session from Dominic:

This will be a demo and brainstorming session. In the February WREN meeting we discussed a project I have been working on, with WMF project grant funding, to prototype auto-generated captions and/or citations of GLAM images using SDC. We went over a quick demo at the end of the hour, and talked about scheduling a dedicated meeting to discuss it further. We are seeking feedback from community members, especially those that do outreach and/or work with GLAM images, on the current prototype, in order to document use cases and demonstrate need for further technical development by WMF.
