Researchers in Israel are using artificial intelligence (AI) to search for the names of Jewish victims of the Holocaust who are not mentioned in official memorials. The Yad Vashem World Holocaust Remembrance Centre in Jerusalem has developed AI-powered software to aid in the search for these unnamed victims. Volunteers have collected information on 4.9 million individuals by examining statements, documents, film footage, cemeteries, and other records. The AI system, currently being tested, can sift through records in multiple languages and has already identified previously unknown victims. The researchers hope that this AI system will provide new insights into the stories of Holocaust victims and ensure their memory is preserved.
