Key findings
GenAI is poised to enhance the work of archivists by streamlining data access, improving user support, and automating routine tasks like data entry.
While it won’t transform the role entirely, it will significantly impact how archivists interact with information and systems.
With AI’s ability to generate text, assist in research, and classify large volumes of data, archivists can focus more on critical thinking and decision-making processes.
The future of archiving will involve leveraging GenAI to improve efficiency and productivity in managing and preserving records.
How could AI or automation replace or complement job activities?
AI, automation, or LLMs like Chatgpt could automate tasks such as digital data processing, information ordering, and memorization in the role of organizing archival records.
They could facilitate access to materials, develop classification systems, and maintain electronic archives.
For example, AI could swiftly categorize and tag archived documents based on content, streamlining retrieval processes for users.
