Lorcan Dempsey, “Generative AI and Libraries: 7 Contexts”

Lorcan Dempsey has just published the third in what I understand to be a planned 4-part series on developments in Generative AI. Really outstanding reading and strongly recommended (as are his two earlier pieces in the series); Lorcan has a great knack for synthesizing a lot of developments and framing the key questions. I particularly loved the context “AI is weird” which captures some important insights that aren’t discussed enough.
