Abstract |
Artificial intelligence already touches many of our daily computing activities, most of the computer systems and mobile phones being developed today have artificial intelligence features, students can use it to learn, teacher can use it to teach and we have probably used them not knowing that they are intelligent machines. Examples of Artificial intelligence in computers are speech recognition, natural language processing, self-driving or autonomous cars, machine learning, deep leaning and robotics. Artificial intelligence works based on perceptual recognition unlike human beings that operate on deep cognition. The power and advantage of Artificial intelligence lies in the fact that computers can recognize patterns efficiently at a scale and speed that human beings cannot. The development of teacher societies in recent times have been facilitated by the growing demand of access to information, and libraries are the prime source in providing this access. The paradigm shift in the format and dynamics of information and knowledge as a result of the rapid advancement in computer technology and software applications especially artificial intelligence, have shifted libraries and universities to a demand of the commensurate supply of the same technologies. Unless university libraries begin to exploit the new technologies and innovate their information and services delivery, they may face obsolescence in this era. Thus, recommendations and conclusion were made.
