Abstract
This paper explores the potential of language models such as ChatGPT to transform library cataloging. Through experiments with ChatGPT, the author demonstrates its ability to generate accurate MARC records using RDA and other standards such as the Dublin Core Metadata Element Set. These results demonstrate the potential of ChatGPT as a tool for streamlining the record creation process and improving efficiency in library settings. The use of AI-generated records, however, also raises important questions related to intellectual property rights and bias. The paper reviews recent studies on AI in libraries and concludes that further research and development of this innovative technology is necessary to ensure its responsible implementation in the field of library cataloging.
本文探讨了ChatGPT等语言模型在转换图书馆编目方面的潜力。通过ChatGPT的实验,作者证明了它能够使用RDA和其他标准(如Dublin Core Metadata Element Set)生成准确的MARC记录。这些结果证明了ChatGPT作为简化记录创建过程和提高图书馆设置效率的工具的潜力。然而,使用人工智能生成的记录也引发了与知识产权和偏见有关的重要问题。本文回顾了人工智能在图书馆中的最新研究,并得出结论,有必要进一步研究和开发这一创新技术,以确保其在图书馆编目领域的负责任实施。
