Project

During my residence at faberllull Olot I will participate in the InterPARES Trust AI project's study "Model for an AI-Assisted Digitization Project" in which I will collaborate with my colleagues in 1) creation of non-prescriptive and adaptable model for a digitization project that can act as a guide for organizations to identify the main activities and processes involved in digitization projects, 2) identification of AI technologies that may be used during digitization aiming at ensuring long-term sustainability of the digitized records, and 3) determining the potential benefits, risks, and biases of using AI technologies on records and archives during digitization projects. I will also analyze results of the survey on AI and digitization which will be conducted before the residence at faberllull Olot and whose results will inform the developed model.
