AI-Powered Yizkor Book Project Shows Human-in-the-Loop Editing Workflow

The author details the editing stage of the Kehilot project: a workspace with a chat in the center, the book entry on the left, and pending changes on the right. The system proposes new entries, missing connections, improvements, and even whole articles, but a human decides what gets accepted.

When deepening a record, the system first reads the book's own source passages, then searches trusted archives (Yad Vashem, JewishGen, YIVO, USHMM, Shtetl), always linking and clearly labeling external findings rather than passing them off as in-book testimony.
