BREAKOUT CITY ROOM 1
As artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies reshape data management practices, traditional approaches for recordkeeping are being tested. This session explores the challenges and opportunities presented by digital transformation initiatives and questions the relevance of retention and disposal authorities.
We will dissect this through case studies, discussions about best practices, and take a quick look at our past to construct an imaginary future for archival standards when humans are no longer in the loop.
