This is an easy-to-read chapter: Ethics Case Studies of Artificial Intelligence for Library and Information Professionals that reiterates many of the things we need to remember when working with and teaching about Generative AI tools.
I didn’t learn anything new, per se, but liked that this is focussed specifically on our profession. What’s most useful though, IMHO, is the introduction to these 8 fleshed-out scenarios: Ethics Scenarios Of Artificial Intelligence For Information and Knowledge Management And Library Professionals.
A few of them are a little too obvious for my liking, but I did particularly like scenario 8, which describes an information professional representing their organization as part of a commercially sponsored team on an AI-project.
What’s neat about these scenarios is that they’re CC-Licensed, so if I complain about one of them being too basic, I can spend some time fleshing it out myself. 🤔
In case you don’t get what you want for Xmas and need something else to read, the book the chapter comes from is available OA at New Horizons in Artificial Intelligence in Libraries.
