Libaries in Response


Speaker:
Michael Hanegan
Adjunct Professor, Artificial Intelligence
Co-Author of "Generative AI and Libraries"

In the form of generative AI, libraries are facing technological transformation of unprecedented speed and scale. Both controversial and disruptive, the sudden ubiquity of AI has already triggered uncertainty as well as the need for rapid adaptation.

"... libraries are uniquely positioned to lead AI’s ethical and human-centered integration within communities."
Tune in for a compelling conversion with Michael about how libraries are specifically well-situated to take a leading role in the age of AI. What special circumstances if not responsibilities might libraries have to take on such a critical task? What makes them unique in this?

Find out on Thursday!
