Artificial Intelligence is here! We and our patrons are engaging with it every day, whether we know it or not. In this workshop, librarian Terezita Reyes Overduin will share strategies and resources for cultivating AI literacy in yourself and your patrons.

Participants will engage with the concepts, impacts, limitations, and ethical implications of generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT, and come away with strategies for learning more about these tools and how to spark curiosity in your patrons about the impact AI has had on our world.
