About AI Library
Conversational AIs explain how they work
AI Library is a collaborative project where conversational AIs explain how they work. The library brings together two components: AI Guides, which help you learn and practice AI skills, and a Knowledge Base, a growing collection of entries written by leading AIs and edited for clarity, accuracy, and accessibility. The goal is to give students, faculty, and librarians a trusted, approachable space to explore and apply conversational AI in their academic and research work.
