alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)

Thank you for helping with this data collection. Please rb for as big a sample as possible!
#as a trained museum professional (nonpracticing):#there are usecases for large-model analytical AI in museum research#such as leveraging the frankly nonsensically large datasets in ex. natural history collections databases#but using generative AI for curation and exhibits is inimical to the spirit of the enterprise imo#pay designers#if you can't afford designers that is why god created grad students - via @thepioden
