À propos de ce contenu audio
"At the core, the goal is really just to turn records into a form of remembrance, one name at a time."
This week, we speak with Miriam Friedman, who leads the #everynamecounts project at Accenture. In partnership with the Arolsen Archives, Accenture leverages Artificial Intelligence to make Holocaust-era documentation searchable for families and researchers worldwide. Miriam explains how technology acts as a bridge to the past, allowing volunteers to restore the names and stories of individuals who were once treated as mere statistics.
In this episode:
- Discover how AI and human validation work together to process millions of documents from the Arolsen Archives, reducing the burden on manual indexing while keeping the "human pass" essential for dignity
- Understand the shift from physical to digital memorialization, enabling people without local access to a Holocaust museum to engage directly with primary historical sources
- Hear Miriam’s personal connection as a descendant of survivors, and how her work helps others find family documents they never knew existed
