Brief news summary

Margaret Kerry-Boeke, a 94-year-old World War II veteran, was amazed to see a crystal-clear video of herself explaining her work as a home-front USO dancer at the National WWII Museum in New Orleans. With the aim of preserving the memories of the vanishing World War II generation, the museum filmed interviews with 18 veterans for an exhibit called Voices from the Front, using artificial intelligence (AI) and voice recognition software to allow visitors to interact with the veterans' stories for years to come. The exhibit currently relies on a video interface, but with advancements in technology, it may eventually include holographic avatars. The AI in the exhibit can search for and play relevant video clips in response to visitors' questions, though response times can be up to 20 seconds. The museum hopes that the exhibit will not only preserve the stories of World War II veterans but also engage younger generations with history.

The National WWII Museum in New Orleans has created an exhibit called Voices from the Front, which features filmed interviews with World War II veterans. The museum aims to preserve the stories of this generation before they are lost, as 131 World War II veterans pass away each day. Using artificial intelligence and voice-recognition software, the exhibit allows visitors to engage with the veterans' memories and have virtual conversations with them. The technology enables visitors to ask questions and receive video responses from the veterans. The AI searches for the most appropriate clips from the interviews to provide the responses.

With future advancements, the interviews may even become holographic. The exhibit is receiving positive feedback, with visitors feeling like they are having authentic conversations with the veterans. Younger visitors are particularly engaged, providing insight into how history can be effectively presented to future generations. The exhibit serves as a valuable resource for families to learn about their relatives' experiences during the war.
