Trick or Treat? AI Research Assistants Disrupting Information Discovery

The UWM Libraries invite you to a discussion in which we will examine emerging AI research tools, their benefits, and shortcomings from viewpoints of information content providers, librarians, and users.

Many academic content providers, including JSTOR, are developing AI Research Assistants to improve the search experience for reliable scholarly sources and deliver more relevant results. Join us for presentations by a representative from JSTOR and two UWM faculty researchers to gain insight into current and potential strategies for literature searching and information evaluation by leveraging the “AI Research Assistant” technology.
