Kort info

Jeg undersøker hva som skjer når AI bringer historiske personer tilbake i samtalen. Jeg studerer chatbots som lar oss «snakke» med fortiden og undersøker hvordan disse møtene endrer minner, læring og offentlig debatt, og spør hvordan generativ AI påvirker historiene vi deler om historien.
Forskning

Lina er doktorgradsstipendiat i ved Institutt for Forskinga hennar ser på bruken av KI-chatrobotar som historisk levandegjering av figurar som Vincent van Gogh og Marie Curie, som gir liv til historia på ein ny og interaktiv måte.

Lina sin yrkesbakgrunn inkluderar digital innhaldsskaping for eit tysk museum fokusert pÃ¥ samtidshistorie, og ein toÃ¥rig praksisplass (tysk «Voluntariat») ved eit museum for kommunikasjonens utvikling. Ho har bidrege til ei rekke prosjekt, inkludert ei online-utforsking av Berlin sine  og utstillingskuratering. Med ein mastergrad i verdsarvstudier frÃ¥ BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg og ein bachelor i kulturstudier med historiefokus, har Lina dykka inn i utfordringar knytt til Holocaust-undervisning i Polen og bruken av audiovisuelle vitnesbyrd frÃ¥ Holocaust-overlevande. Hennar tverrfaglege tilnærming blandar teknologi og historie, med mÃ¥l om Ã¥ skape dynamiske og inklusive lærestader gjennom innovativ bruk av generative digitale forteljingar.

Lina er medlem av , medlem av arbeidsgruppen 2025 og 2026 for og tidligere medformann og nåværende medlem av , Ph.d.-kandidatutvalget ved Det humanistiske fakultet, Universitetet i Bergen.
