• Title: Awareness and Adoption of AI Technologies in the Libraries of Karnataka
• Authors: Felcy D'Souza,
• Abstract summary: This study employed a survey research method to evaluate the awareness and adoption of AI technologies among the respondent library professionals in Karnataka. The study revealed that there is a statistically significant difference in the awareness and adoption of AI technologies based on the factor of gender. There no significant relationship exists between the degree of awareness and adoption of AI technologies based on factors such as age, academic ranking, and professional experience.

• Abstract: This study aims to determine the awareness and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in the respondent libraries of Karnataka based on demographic variables such as gender, age, academic status, and professional experience. This study employed a survey research method to evaluate the awareness and adoption of AI technologies among the respondent library professionals in Karnataka. The study employed a stratified random sampling method to select a sample of 120 respondents from a diverse population, encompassing library professionals across multiple institution types including engineering colleges, medical colleges, and degree colleges. The Chi-square test was used to analyze the data. The study revealed that there is a statistically significant difference in the awareness and adoption of AI technologies based on the factor of gender. Whereas there no significant relationship exists between the degree of awareness and adoption of AI technologies based on factors such as age, academic ranking, and professional experience. AI-powered plagiarism detection, grammar checking, and ChatGPT are the most popularly employed AI technologies among the respondents. The respondents are of the perception that AI will support Librarians and not replace them.

  We introduce a process-oriented notion of appropriate reliance called critical use that centers the human's ability to situate AI predictions against knowledge that is uniquely available to them but unavailable to the AI model. We conduct a randomized online experiment in a complex social decision-making setting: child maltreatment screening. We find that, by providing participants with accelerated, low-stakes opportunities to practice AI-assisted decision-making, novices came to exhibit patterns of disagreement with AI that resemble those of experienced workers.

  In 1960 14% of 333 research fields were related to AI, but this increased to over half of all research fields by 1972, over 80% by 1986 and over 98% in current times. In 1960 14% of 333 research fields were related to AI (many in computer science), but this increased to over half of all research fields by 1972, over 80% by 1986 and over 98% in current times. We conclude that the context of the current surge appears different, and that interdisciplinary AI application is likely to be sustained.

  There is a certain consensus about the need to develop AI applications with a Human-Centric approach. Human-Centric Machine Learning needs to be developed based on four main requirements: (i) utility and social good; (ii) privacy and data ownership; (iii) transparency and accountability; and (iv) fairness in AI-driven decision-making processes. We study how current multimodal algorithms based on heterogeneous sources of information are affected by sensitive elements and inner biases in the data.
