Here is the checklist for Assignment X I mentioned in the chat: Assignment X Submission Checklist Let me know what you think.
(Update – I switched to a PDF of the checklist for ease of use.)
Hi Michael,
Sorry I could not attend. I work every other Sunday. The link to the recording is currently going to the same place as the Assignment X checklist. FYI.

@daisychia @mariahaeflinger Thanks for the heads up! Links should work now.
Thanks for sharing the recording! I remember Blue Books! 😀
Good convo on AI, as well. Mark Cuban isn’t right about everything in his predictions (I mean, he makes quite a few!), but he posted one really intriguing bit the other day. He said that in three years, “there will be so much AI, in particular AI video [e.g., DeepFake, voice imitation and the like], people won’t know if what they see or hear is real, which will lead to an explosion of face-to-face engagement, events, and jobs.”
Pretty provocative, I thought, with underpinnings for LIS, obviously. I could see it!
Have to admit, as much of a pain as constant 2FA, security codes, and so on are, I take more and more comfort in knowing that these things are the closest we can get to security and authenticity in an exploding landscape of grifting and scammers. Hard to fake ‘F2F’!
@sjsudon that is super interesting to think about. I am not a fan of any of the stuff around deep fakes and trying to fool people. I fear it is an issue that will become more and more prominent as you point out. For working remotely how would we know if a person on a zoom call was real or an elaborate deep fake? And we’ve crossed over into Science Fiction territory for sure.
