Artificial intelligence technologies, or as they are now often called, AI, are rapidly entering or, rather, breaking into all spheres of public and private life. A new reality is being born right before our eyes. AI can help people in a variety of ways, but, as some scientists warn, it can also be harmful in other ways. Nevertheless, its triumphant march across the world continues. It is really useful, and soon we may not be able to imagine our lives without this tireless assistant. Recently, AI started working in the Scientific and Technical Library of KPI. Library director Yevheniia Kulyk told KP about what it will do there and what it is already doing. By the way, in Ukraine, Hryhorii Denysenko STL became the first library to implement this technology in its activities.
