A Florida university posted an AI librarian...

Risen so quickly and we can't keep up with information on various tools. We need to be better about letting people know what's going on. DOGE is using AI to vet important documents (awful!). How can we get the information literacy piece that no one else wants to grasp?

Students want the information but they're not presented info

K-12 instructor: we have an obligation to teach people ethical and unethical usage; impacts on climate. If we say we are never going to use it, it could be seen as a derrolection of duty

Professor asked librarian to teach on this topic to students. Talked about ethics and environmental implications. Did not go over using GenAI in the classroom for brainstorming.

One way the librarian can provide additional info for the student is to send the journal's table of contents to show the article is not included.

Disparities in paid v. unpaid tools for students

This indicates that there is a lack of AI literacy...don't have strong knowledge of prompt engineering

# data[].attributes.body
Students short-changed even when trying to use it ethically

# data[].attributes.body
Students get embarrassed/offended when they realize citations they've provided the librarian are hallucinations. In chat reference, about once a week.

I think in order to keep libraries physical, AI should only be used for data analysis or calculation models at most. The overutilization of AI in a realm that inherently requires tangible mediums would either require a complete overhaul to digitize said mediums, or would negate a large number of employees that manage and care for these collections. Neither of these options, as has already been exemplified with corporations or entities integrating AI in an attempt to replace numerous careerists (artists, analysts, authors, scientists, the list goes on), is ideal; whether by unemploying dedicated experts, or pulling immense resources to manage and tailor the beast that AI has become. I think AI should be kept as a tool to be wielded by a professional, and not as a replacement for the professionals themselves.

I have seen libraries using AI to assist with cataloging, but it doesn’t “save time” (ex “labor costs”) — it just creates new work that needs to be audited

Units at Temple U were tasked with focusing on picking tools to promote, and tackling AI in sections

Explaining what AI actually is and what it does. Regarding privacy we've been discussing the scraping of data on the LLM and that student privacy and copyright could/would be violated if teachers are uploading their content for grading.
