Event Dates: July 15-19, 2024
OHA is pleased to announce that the registration portal for our upcoming virtual symposium “AI in OH: How New and Evolving Technologies Will Impact the Profession” is now open!
For this online symposium, OHA invited oral history practitioners and scholars from all disciplines who
utilized oral history in their work to submit proposals detailing any number of intersections between
artificial intelligence and oral history. From a strong submission pool, we are happy to present ten
sessions over five days (July 15-19, 2024) that delve into the structural and ethical aspects of applying
AI to oral history work.
You can find the digital version of the symposium program HERE.
Each session is scheduled for two hours, with the last thirty minutes designated for a robust Q&A section
so that attendees have plenty of opportunity to delve deeper into the theory and/or practice on display.
We have also scheduled one morning and one afternoon session per day with a two-hour break in
between so that everyone has a chance to fit at least some of this content into their weekly schedule.
With your registration comes the ability to view all session recordings shortly after the conclusion of the
event to accommodate asynchronous schedules.
If you have any questions about the symposium, please reach out to AI in OH program co-chairs Steven Sielaff (steven_sielaff@baylor.edu) & Sarah Milligan (sarah.milligan@okstate.edu).
If you have any administrative questions about the portal, please reach out to OHA’s Program Associate Hailey Vinson at oha@oralhistory.org.
