Hi HN, creator here. The Living Museum is an experimental interface that uses AI to bring the British Museum's collection to life.

The two main contributions are: 1. Using natural language, you can craft personalized exhibits for anything you can think of. 2. You can start a conversation with any artifact, about its origins, what life was like in its time, or anything really.

With this project, I tried to show how modern technology like AI could be additive to the museum experience. I believe interactivity will help people build more meaningful, lasting connections with the past than today's relatively passive modes of education.
