The Ethics of AI, Information Systems, and Libraries
2026-02-18 09:30 - 11:00
Hosted by MSU Libraries, this panel convenes scholars and practitioners to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming copyright, creativity, and the circulation of knowledge. Copyright as we have known it is already under strain; AI systems are reshaping authorship, publishing, and business models faster than policy or ethics can catch up. Rather than only asking what is being disrupted, the panel will focus on what we are building right now: the sociotechnical systems, governance models, and creative practices that will define the next era of scholarship and art. Drawing on expertise in digital literacies, AI governance, information economics, and library stewardship, the discussion will highlight both the risks of ad-hoc adaptation and the opportunities to shape more equitable, sustainable, and generative systems for creators, publishers, and the public. Join us for this exciting conversation on Wednesday, February 18th from 9:30am-11am.
Moderated by Kay Firth-Butterfield, CEO of Good Tech Advisory and the inaugural Head of AI and Machine Learning at the World Economic Forum.
Panelists: Susan Kendall (Library) Johannis in the Quello Center, Denelle (the role of the creator), Marcio Olivero (AI in Education), Justin Simard (legality perspective).

Panel participants: Thomas Jeitschko, Senior Vice Provost, Michigan State, and Professor of Economics Patricia Harned, President, Ethics and Compliance Initiative, Washington, D.C. Suzanne Milton, Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer, Virginia Commonwealth University Kirk Hanson, Senior Fellow, Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, Santa Clara University (Chair)
