When AI Search Makes Up the Query Input, and Why That Isn’t Necessarily a Problem

Increasingly, “AI literacy” seems to mean walking around saying: “But how can we be SURE this AI/LLM isn’t biased?” Of course an AI system might be biased. But the way this is often phrased makes me uncomfortable. Maybe part of it is that it's often often demanding you prove a negative /1

Are Libraries Prepared for the Second Digital Transformation of Distinctive Collections? scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2026/09/29/a...

Are libraries prepared for the second digital transformation of distinctive collections?
Academic and research libraries, as well as public libraries, historical societies, and other organizations, hold extensive collections of rare and unique materials, such as archival and manuscript collections. These materials form an essential part of humanity’s cultural and historical record, and they are the vital source material for many humanistic fields. I believe that a second digital transformation is at hand for distinctive collections. How can library leaders establish a strategy for their distinctive collections that is fit for purpose today?

"They then often had 2–3 days — and in some cases just 24 hours — to assess a manuscript and submit their report to the platform. Most interviewees reported receiving payments of €30–40 (around US$35–45) per review." This right here is why peer review micropayments are a bad idea.

I always like to say AI/LLM because a lot of the time, if all you can see the final result, it is hard to tell if the system is using LLM (think GPT) or some other form of "AI", traditional ML/NLP. Take for example Primo's Natural language search and Web of Science smart search both by Clarivate.(1)
