A Proposal for a Collective Memory of Artificial Intelligence in Europe

Martin Pereira-Fariña, Davide Bassi · The European Journal on Artificial Intelligence · 2026

As artificial intelligence (AI) and its applications continue to reshape our world, understanding its historical roots becomes increasingly crucial. However, this historical perspective, focused on documenting what actually happened from the most objective point of view, is incomplete if we do not capture how different groups remember those events. For this reason, we argue in this paper in favor of developing a collective memory of AI in three different lines (as a body of knowledge, as attributes, and as a process) which will complement the historical task. As a result, we will obtain a more comprehensive vision of the development of AI, incorporating a more humanistic perspective, which will be crucial to understanding how society assesses AI.
