Abstract

Using Artificial Inteligence in archives responsibly, clearly documenting why, how, by whom and with what results a specific system or tool was used in a given context, requires the conscious adoption of paradata throughout the entire period of use of such system or tool and not only at the start or end of a procedure. Paradata are structured and formalized data documenting the methodologies, processes (including technological ones) and persons (physical and juridical) associated with the production and management of records. This contribution focuses on paradata generated in connection with the use of AI systems or tools in archives to perform archival functions. Its content is primarily a result of the research conducted within the context of the international project InterPARES Trust AI.
