Top 5 panoramas by guide activity
Panoramas that sparked the most questions with the AI guide.
The documentary corpus behind the guide
Behind every panorama, the AI guide draws on a body of documentary material — historical context, anecdotes, artwork descriptions and a structured record for each work. Measured with Anthropic's tokenizer (the very one the guide runs on), this corpus amounts to 356,732 tokens spread across the 100 works of the catalogue — roughly as much text as a novel like Alexandre Dumas's The Three Musketeers.
Liège Inside, augmented heritage
Liège Inside is an independent digital cultural mediation project. It allows exploring the heritage of the Cité Ardente through immersive 360° panoramas, each accompanied by an AI guide that goes beyond the traditional label.
The project is entirely self-funded, with no advertising. It is not an official site of the institutions represented — La Boverie, the Prince-Bishops' Palace, the Royal Opera of Wallonia, the Cathedral Treasury of Saint-Paul, and the other venues.
The 360° panoramas are photographed and assembled by Thierry Lechanteur using specialised equipment. Each artwork has a dedicated AI guide, powered by Anthropic's Claude API and fed by original documentary research. The guide does not replace official labels: it enriches them with historical context, anecdotes, and connections between works.
