Preserving Truth in the Digital Age - An Evening with Dr Victoria Walden
Event description
How can we ensure the preservation of Holocaust memory in the age of technology and artificial intelligence (AI)?
Presented by Dr Victoria Grace Walden SFHEA FRSA MILM.
The rise and use of AI and new technologies in our society brings with it advantages as well as new challenges to Holocaust museums.
Although AI and technology present many dangers to the preservation of truth, if used correctly, they can make a vital contribution to the sustainability of Holocaust memory, providing the tools to preserve and share historical collections in ways that weren’t possible before.
Join us as Dr Victoria Walden addresses the value and the limitations of technology during this transformational phase of Holocaust education.
