Putting Information Professionals on the Map of Human‐Centered AI: An Analysis using the Artificial Intelligence Act

This short paper presents a study that analyzes the role of information professionals—specifically digital records management (DRM) and digital preservation (DP)—in the current human‐centered artificial intelligence (HCAI) landscape, using the newly enacted EU Artificial Intelligence Act (AIA) as a case study. It argues that these information professionals should be explicitly integrated into the HCAI framework to help achieve its goals and ensure the successful implementation of the AIA.
