Website helps name Jewish dead - 19th December 2022
During the Second World War, millions of Jewish people died. Some ran away. Those people were lucky. They were survivors. Many survivors never saw their family again.
Now, one man - Daniel Patt - is trying to help. He built a website. He uses AI, artificial intelligence. With AI, he matches people's faces with old photographs. There are 34,000 old photos.
Patt helped one survivor, Blanche Fixler, 86. Fixler now lives in New York. But she was a child in the war. She hid from the Nazis inside a bed.
Fixler put an old family photo on Patt's website. Patt used AI to look through the photo library. He found Fixler in a school photo.
Patt went to New York to show Fixler. In the picture, she saw her aunt Rose and a friend. That helped Patt. He now knows three more names. One million Jewish people don't have a name. This is important for survivors.
