In this paper, Sonja Thiel and Etienne Posthumus provide insight into the results of the Creative User Empowerment project (2021-23), which led to the development of the xCurator tool. This AI-powered curation uses intelligent search technologies, image embeddings, and entity linking and improves accessibility and engagement with digital museum collections. It uses AI technologies to suggest relevant objects and information based on the individual user's interests, providing them with a personalized and in-depth exploration of the collection. Users can interact with large language models (LLMs) enriched with collection data, enabling them to write about and share objects.
