Title:
The ARL/CNI Task Force on AI Futures Scenarios for the Research Enterprise and Research Libraries
Description
The joint ARL/CNI Task Force was formed in late 2023 and has met several times, including an in-person workshop in Washington, DC, in February 2024, to develop draft scenarios exploring possible futures for the research enterprise and research libraries as the deployment of AI-based technologies unfolds over the next decade. The scenarios are intended to offer insight into how the numerous uncertainties surrounding AI technologies and their deployment may play out and to explore some possible implications. At this session, after framing the scenario process, objectives, and potential uses of the scenarios, members of the Task Force will introduce the four draft scenarios, comment on the key uncertainties that the group has tried to capture in the portfolio of scenarios, and seek feedback from the audience around the plausibility and consistency of the scenarios.
