Holocaust survivors to use AI to ‘future-proof’ their stories for UK schools

Testimony 360 project allows pupils to talk to AI versions of survivors and take virtual tours of concentration camps

A groundbreaking educational programme will launch in UK schools later this month using artificial intelligence and virtual reality to “future-proof” the testimonies of Holocaust survivors.

The Holocaust Educational Trust, a London-based charity, will launch its Testimony 360 programme across schools in the UK, allowing pupils to have lifelike, face-to-face conversations with Holocaust survivors through innovative technology.
