About This ConferenceLearn from colleagues across the country and join in on the discussion of the impacts, ethics, pitfalls, and potential of AI in academic libraries and classrooms. Despite the opposition some might have to AI, it likely isn’t going anywhere. As such, academics need to engage in ongoing conversations about if and how to engage with AI.
