Hi Julie, Davin, and everyone~! Exciting times and welcome to the AI SIG! On the personal side, I underwent certification programs on the topic of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and all before the tools were popularized, so I know what is involved. I use all sorts of them available to me, especially if they are free, and love the nostalgic feeling of their past developments and the knowledge behind them. Love the attention they have been receiving and the impacts and directions they are each going as I encounter each and everyone's thoughts and experiences about them, and I hope the folks behind some of the educational materials that were taken off were well compensated for, as I do recognize their work among some of the products popularized today. If you would like to find some interactive visual aids to gain ideas of and even to help you present and share how AI works without creating your own or even spending money on others, try: https://globe.engineer/. On the professional side, I'm trying to discover the historical work behind the encouragement of transition from manual to computerized work. It was a bit fast at hospitals and I can see why--the monetary incentives--and how it was done--generational change in workforce through at least education and certain privileges, and it sounds like we need to remember how libraries transformed from physical card catalogs to introduction of at least computers within the library environment.

CAUTION: EXTERNAL EMAIL The Sofware AI tools that I use, some only at home due to institutional restrictions, include the following: Grammarly (Talk about a crutch, if there ever was one) I also am experimenting with NotebookLM and it does seem to be a WorkLife improvement tool. I am interested in seeing how it develops further and utilizing it at conferences this year. On the professional side, we have institutional access to co-pilot and trialed both Web of Science research assistant and Scopus AI. Both are improving, but I had far more issues with Scopus in terms of data output, as it would reference articles outside the scope of the query. This resulted in the output files not being as accurate as they could be and, in some cases, completely incorrect. The Ai-sig mailing list is managed by ELUNA and IGeLU.
