PDA Series: AI and the Future of Personal Computing: Implications for Libraries and Beyond

Session Details:

Discover how artificial intelligence is set to impact personal computing and library services in our upcoming webinar hosted by Colin Keenan, Experiential Learning Services Librarian at NC State University. We will examine key habits and trends in computing over the last 15 years, particularly the rise of the browser as a central retrieval and creative tool. This session will also highlight projected changes to interfaces and how AI empowers self-identified ‘non-technical’ staff to engage in tool development thinking.

The webinar will be activity-based, featuring example workflows tailored to specific professional needs and providing practical insights into how AI can be harnessed for both personal and professional utility. Join us to explore the potential of AI and prepare for the next wave of advancements in personal computing and library service optimization.

Learning Objectives:

* Understand Key Trends in Computing: Participants will gain insights into significant computing trends over the past 15 years, particularly the increasing role of the browser, and how these trends influence current and future AI developments.

* Explore AI-Driven Interface Changes: Attendees will learn about upcoming changes in user interfaces driven by AI and how these changes will simplify tasks, enabling users to accomplish more by plainly stating their ideas.

* Develop Practical AI Skills: Participants will engage in hands-on activities, including coding examples, to develop practical skills in using AI for web development and other tasks, regardless of their technical background.
