What BBN said about it

  1. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentShe's Holocaust survivor Sonia Warshawski, telling it in her own words.

  2. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThat's moving, actually. Like she's in the room.

  3. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThe Washington Examiner's worry is who controls these systems once the survivors are gone.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentBecause the internet can't even keep a pasta recipe the same for a week.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA week?

  6. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSomebody always adds a cup of sugar. Now picture that with history.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThen the answer is simple. Real people check every word before it goes on the screen. Historians, families, the museums.

  8. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFine, but who checks the checkers? Because I've seen a comment section try to fix something. It did not go well.

  9. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAbsolutely not, Kenji. You are not moderating this.
