Abstract
A recent study about ChatGPT use amongst librarians broke a reliable and widely replicated model. This presentation digs through the incongruous results to provide a snapshot of the excitement, concerns, and conflict that arise in engaging with such tools, particularly in our capacity as information literacy instructors.
Generative AI, like Chat GPT, is changing the landscape of information literacy as well as how we develop and deliver instructional content. This presentation speaks to how early adopters and detractors began to experiment with the technology and how they viewed its influence on their instructional design, applying information literacy principles to GenAI generated content, and ethically engaging with these new tools in academic settings.
