Artificial Intelligence in the Service of Chile's Historical Memory

NuestramemorIA uses artificial intelligence—adhering to high standards of privacy and security—to analyze and link human rights records from the Chilean dictatorship, transforming scattered documents into new information that advances truth, memory, and justice.

WHAT IS OUR MEMORY?

Technology in the Service of Historical Truth

The NuestramemorIA team develops tailored AI systems—such as language models and knowledge graphs—capable of connecting disparate pieces of information and broadening the questions we can ask of historical documents.
