GenAI@VIU: In Conversation with Luke McLeod

How is generative AI impacting your profession? In this episode, we examine the challenges the VIU Library is facing around AI Research Assistants (AI-RA). These tools are designed to support users throughout various stages of the research process. Librarian Luke McLeod discusses how the library is addressing concerns related to privacy, consent, academic integrity, and the quality of research searches, offering insights into how we can better prepare for the impact of generative AI.
