It should be noted that that project is not a partnership with the British Museum, they're just using their data to demonstrate the technology. I thought the way it was presented on their website was somewhat misleading.

these technologies could be used to craft engaging experiences for museums
visitors and people at home. First, we allow visitors to curate
personalized exhibits by searching the collection using natural language.
Second, we use large language models (LLMs) to bring artifacts to life,
allowing visitors to feel their presence and learn about history through
dialogue.


I saw this when it was posted on the Museums Computer Group email list

was really interesting and clever way of using AI in relation to cultural
heritage data
