The Cost of Knowledge: What AI Takes, What It Gives Back
This workshop is part of the UW Libraries Open Access Week Workshop Series
Open Access Week asks what it costs to create and share knowledge. AI sits in the middle of that question. It was trained on the research that open access fought to free. This session opens up what actually happens when you send a prompt, then works through the financial, human, and environmental costs of tools most of us now use daily. We will also look at the other side: what these tools give back, how they compare to the search engines and streaming services we stopped questioning years ago, and where the bias comes from when a model states a contested claim as settled fact.
You will leave being able to use these tools more deliberately: which model fits which task, when a simpler tool does the job, and what to check before you trust an answer.
Event interval: Single day event. Accessibility Contact: ebedford@uw.edu. Event Types: Lectures/Seminars. Target Audience: UW Students, Faculty, Postdocs.
