Introduction

AI tools should be used with caution and awareness of their limitations. While AI can assist in tasks such as research assistance, data analysis, and resource recommendations, it is essential for librarians to evaluate the outputs of AI systems for accuracy, bias, and fairness. AI systems are only as good as the data they are trained on, and biases in data can lead to biased or unfair outcomes. Always verify AI-generated information and use human judgment when interpreting results.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                                               

 

 

 

History of AI

The history of modern AI began during World War II with the work of Alan Turing. He predicted the future of computers, machine learning, and chatbots. In 1997, IBM's DeepBlue beat a human chess champion but lacked the ability to think like a human. Distributed by PBS Distribution.
