Libraries, archives and museums should not underestimate their important role in building training datasets for machine learning. This paper underlines their century old expertise in collecting data in a responsible manner 👇

Data collection lessons from archival/library sciences that ML could use: • institutional mission statement • full-time curators responsible for weighing risks & benefits • codes of ethics & framework for enforcement • standardized documentation arxiv.org/pdf/1912.10389.pdf
archives have • an institutional mission statement that defines the concepts or subgroups to collect data on • full-time curators responsible for weighing the risks and benefits of gathering different types of data and theoretical frameworks for appraising collected data • codes of conduct/ethics and a professional framework for enforcing them • standardized forms of documentation akin to what was proposed in Datashe
