Project

During this residency, I will be participating as a member of the study group on “Model for an AI-Assisted Digitization Project” (RA03)” which is working on a non-prescriptive and adaptable model to describe the functions and activities a digitization project entails. We also want to work on our literature review and potential AI-assisted interventions to the digitization model. Additionally, we will be analyzing the results of the survey on AI and digitization.
