Abstract
In 2020 a regional chapter of AI4LAM (AI for Libraries, Archives and Museums) [1] was launched for Australia and New Zealand. This is a grassroots initiative coordinated by volunteers to draw together people passionate about digital cultural heritage collections and digital humanities research with interests in data, technology and computation and many questions about where/when/what/how/why AI is going to or can be a part of work practice.
New practices e.g., automation, analytics, or augmentation, need different technical expertise, disciplinary knowledge and cultural experience to be brought together. A little spark of magic flares when creative and technical minds and gentle hearts come together to ask questions, solve problems and reflect together.
The welcome mat is out and the open source community in Australia and New Zealand are invited to join in, share expertise and learn, and work on projects. Come to this talk to find out what's happening and why you might like to join us.
