What an inspiring and powerful talk. About vulnerability, creating change by teaching librarians who will then go and teach others, and this! “My first ‘aha’ was her. My whole life changed in that moment.” #LILAC26 #Collaboration #KnowledgeJustice #InformationLiteracy #Librarians

UCLA librarians (shout to my alma mater!) currently presenting the ‘inevitability rhetoric’ and hype cycle around AI. In my circles I do notice the *perception* that pro-critical engagement with AI is a blanket pro-AI stance. Which it is not. #LILAC26 #InformationLiteracy #AILiteracy #Librarians

#LILAC26 started out with a bang with Jane Hammons’ (Ohio State University) workshop exploring teacher ‘authenticity’ and ‘vulnerability’ in making decisions related to #generativeAI. #InformationLiteracy #Librarians

This was by far my favourite talk at @hayfestival.bsky.social, even with the speaker joining remotely. A heart-stopping story presented with an authentic and engaging voice. Now I have to read all of his #books. #Care #Writers #Disability

A certain company now offers a #GenAI for older adults tutorial. Reminds me of when I worked in a #BayArea #PublicLibrary and old folks would come in with brand-new iPads that their grown Silicon Valley kids had bought for them, with no clue how to even turn them on... #Librarians #DigitalLiteracy

Weekends I catch up with friends and family 8 time zones away. I struggle generally talking about politics which inevitably comes up. Am struck by the news/information sources people actually read, even my loved ones, which span from benignly middle-of-the-road to nefarious. #CriticalThinking
