This week I read three articles for class plus one more on my own. The citations are listed herein as well as my thoughts regarding artificial intelligence (AI).
Article 1 – Nemorin, S., Vlachidis, A., Ayerakwa, H. M., & Andriotis, P. (2023). “AI hyped? A horizon scan of discourse on artificial intelligence in education (AIED) and development.” Learning, Media and Technology, 48(1), 38-51. From Article 1, I pulled two major ideas. One, that AI enhances not creates; it is dependent on teachers and tools. Also, AI has no universal “rules” at this time.
Article 2 – Sofia, M., Fraboni, F., De Angelis, M., Puzzo, G., Giusino, D., & Pietrantoni, L. (2023). The impact of artificial intelligence on workers’ skills: Upskilling and reskilling in organisations. Informing Science: The International Journal of an Emerging Transdiscipline, 26, 39-68. From Article 2, I again pulled two major ideas. One, that generative AI bridges computer-human gaps. Two, that developing soft skills help AI be more effective in the work environment.
Article 3 – Touretzky, D., Gardner-McCune, C., Martin, F., & Seehorn, D. (2019, July). Envisioning AI for K-12: What should every child know about AI?. In Proceedings of the AAAI conference on artificial intelligence (Vol. 33, No. 01, pp. 9795-9799). From Article 3, I pulled these major ideas: One, that AI is not independent of humans – it relies on us to function. Two, AI is not natural at interacting with humans… yet.
My article (4) – Clarivate Survey on Library AI Adoption. (2025). Library Journal, 150(12), 10. From Article 4, I pulled the major ideas that: One, that librarians should fill the gap for those who know nothing of AI compared to those who know much. Two, AI is not as well known for librarians or looked at as important across the board.
*UPDATE*
After reading some classmates’ take-aways from this week’s articles, I have two new summations. First, from Touretsky et. al, Amanda Davis points out that there are different types of AI that I hadn’t thought about. She does a good job pointing these out to me and others. Second, from Nemorin et. al, Tony K points out that AI isn’t always equal in its adaptation capability, an idea I now understand much more in-depth.
