Mission
At HAIRA, we agree that Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a thing of the future. In the era of big data, AI is today’s reality; a reality to accept, adjust, and wrestle with. We contend that AI is a concept, a space, as well as a machine approach to data/information for analysis and prediction.
we are WORKING
HAIRA plans to be a space to discuss AI in archives. In the era of big data and algorithms, it is becoming expedient to consider the effect of technological advances on data curation and archives
Exploring possible collaboration
Collaboration between artificial intelligence and humans is vital for harnessing the strengths of both, with AI providing data-driven insights and efficiency while humans contribute creativity and ethical judgment.
