- A year of Generative AI- future directions for Wikimedia
- By User:Barkeep49, Maryana Pinchuk, and Robert West
- This December marks the one-year anniversary of ChatGPT with the resulting public interest in generative AI and growing research focus on practical uses of large language models. There has been much discussion about how these generative models might disrupt the Wikimedia projects but also prototyping to see where they might be useful. To discuss what we've learned in the past year and what opportunities ahead are being enabled by research, we bring together a panel of four folks: Isaac Johnson (senior research scientist at the Wikimedia Foundation) will be the moderator and the three panelists are User:Barkeep49, Maryana Pinchuk, and Robert West to bring perspectives from the volunteer, product, and research communities.
