“New Technologies, Antisemitism, and Holocaust Education”

A five-part seminar series via Zoom

Artificial intelligence and other digital technologies promise to revolutionize our world. As we look forward to new possibilities, we remain mindful of potential dangers.

Looking beyond social media, we speak with industry leaders and scholars on the promises, opportunities, and challenges of new technologies to mitigate antisemitism and teach about the Holocaust. We also consider how these same technologies can be used in ways that are harmful to Jewish and other minority communities, and to the field of education.

All events will be held on Zoom.

Accenture: Artificial Intelligence as a Tool for Holocaust Research
Tuesday, April 9 at 7:00 via Zoom

The Arolsen Archives preserve the world鈥檚 largest collection of documents on Nazi persecution 鈥� 110 million documents and digital objects, a portion of which are part of UNESCO鈥檚 Memory of the World program 鈥� to keep the memory of the crimes of the German terror regime alive. An essential part of the Archives鈥� work is to make these documents accessible to all who wish to search for traces of Holocaust victims and survivors, persecution of minorities and forced labor. Every document maintained in the archives needs to be reviewed and its information (e.g., the family name and birth date on a prisoner registration form) put into a database.

To facilitate this process, the Arolsen Archives established 鈥�#everynamecounts,鈥� a crowdsourcing project for volunteers to extract information from documents manually. Ian Lever, an Accenture volunteer and a member of the company鈥檚 Jewish Employee Resource Group, quickly realized that AI could accelerate this process significantly. Within 10 weeks, he and other Accenture volunteers set up an AI solution to index the documents. Because the AI captures the information faster and increases its accuracy, four volunteers can now validate approximately 160 documents in one hour, a 40-fold increase in productivity.

The Nazis established the聽聽on the outskirts of occupied Lviv (currently in Ukraine, also called Lvov and Lemberk). They enslaved and murdered no fewer than 80,000 Jews on that site. Like other camps, much of the former site remains inaccessible or was destroyed by the Nazis during the war to cover their crimes. Dr. Waitman Wade Beorn, an historian of the Second World War, has endeavored to create a聽聽for research and teaching, based upon archival and photographic evidence, as well as survivor testimonies.
