How should theological librarians think about and respond to the advent of AI in theological education? What role(s) might theological librarians have in this brave new world? How is AI similar to, and different from, other information technology revolutions (writing, printing, the internet)?

While we may be unable to provide definite answers, this session will at least offer a forum for raising, considering, and discussing these and related questions.
