Ep. 70 Witnessing Through Code: AI, Ethics, and the Holocaust

What happens when memory meets machine? In this episode, Dr.
Mehak Burza speaks with Dr. Todd Presner, Chair of UCLA's
Department of European Languages and Transcultural Studies and
author of "Ethics of the Algorithm: Digital Humanities and
Holocaust Memory" (Princeton, 2024). Together they unpack the
growing role of digital tools and artificial intelligence in
shaping Holocaust remembrance. Moving beyond traditional
memorials, this conversation dives into algorithmic ethics, data
obfuscation, and ensuring that digital Holocaust projects remain
transparent, respectful and human-centered.
