UKMedLibs I don’t think it’s really the case, anymore than we were doomed by the arrival of movable type, online databases, the CD-ROM, etc etc. At the same time, AI tools and LLMs in particular do pose some challenges that maybe we haven’t faced in the past #ukmedlibs

UKMedLibs We have considerable issues with a lack of health librarians. AI could help us stretch our skills further. We have expertise to bring (and learning to do) #ukmedlibs

Lotty Summers Phil Bradley Absolutely - I already feel behind the curve and not sure I have the technical know how to truly understand how the tools really work. I don't imagine I'm alone! But @philbradley is right - huge opportunity for us #ukmedlibs

#ukmedlibs we should take nothing at face value - consider the Lancet/MMR article!?

as per Phil - look to the future! #ukmedlibs

and now our final question for the session: question seven: What do you think our role will be in an AI assisted world? #ukmedlibs

Alison Day UKMedLibs Georgina Cosma CILIP #ukmedlibs an attempt to assemble a toolbox insights.uksg.org/articles/10.16…

Just thinking about staff development and understanding of AI tools - if there was anything you wanted to know about these tools what questions would you like answered? #ukmedlibs

Thanks everyone for a super chat and to the wonderful organisers. More on AI coming soon to the library.hee.nhs.uk/learning-acade… with regular updates form our colleague Hannah. #ukmedlibs

an important distinction - and one that I must remember - AI is not a single tool/system but a collectin of them. #ukmedlibs

training, training and more opportunities to explore! #ukmedlibs

a very important point here - AI is just a tool - it is the person using it that will benefit. #ukmedlibs

Holly Case Wyatt Lotty Summers UKMedLibs #ukmedlibs Agreed. They need help and advice from us, and we get it by playing, exploring, learning, utilising, demonstrating & teaching.

Tom Roper Yes that’s another important point, we must use our voices to call out bias, both implicit and unconscious #ukmedlibs
