This looks like a great discussion @Angie Judge. Even in the world I'm in - marketing, communications, sales, PR, etc. - AI adoption is hit or miss. Some folks love it and embrace it, others want to go back to pen & paper. But so many of us are somewhere in the middle. Events like this help us find our own middle ground. Love it! 

I'm curious - how do you use AI in your everyday life? Personal or professional? 

Hi Daniel, we're seeing the same thing in our conversational insight product, Ask @ Dexibit. Everyone's on their own journey - some have a lot of questions and are in it all day, others are just experimenting, some haven't started yet. Some are very strategic, some purely operational - and that's not necessarily role dependent. For me, it's become fairly embedded all day, every day - and not just for working with data in Dexibit, but also at work how we create product, support customers, etc, which allows us to achieve more and more scale and build on our creative vision. Personally, I use it to help with health management, parenting tips, cooking, holiday planning, etc.

Hi Angie, thank you for sharing this. I am sorry that I missed the discussion, as the topic aligns closely with what I am exploring right now: blending cultural heritage management and data science, with a focus on how museums/institutions can use analytics, statistical modeling, and emerging AI tools to support operational planning, space forecasting, and evidence-based decision making. 

My background is in objects conservation, but I recently completed a graduate degree in quantitative management at Duke and have been developing analytics-forward tools for museums, including volumetric and space-use models as well as exploring Bayesian approaches to collections and operational questions. I am very interested in how teams are beginning to use conversational AI for insight generation and scenario planning. I am also interested in creating better surveys that both ask the right questions and also consider how data analytics can best utilize the results on the other end. 

If you have notes or takeaways from the session, I would be grateful to read them. I am also happy to connect with others who are thinking about AI literacy, governance, and practical decision support in museum environments.

Thank you again for putting this conversation into the field.

Best, 

Jane

Hi Jane,

Sure did - here's the link to the recording: https://dexibit.com/ask-showcase. Demo starts at 7.36m, followed by guest speakers from Monopoly and NE Aquarium.
