9 May 2024

Dear EDUWiki community,

I'm reaching out requesting your help in participating in a survey on GenAI
and its impact on education, research and the cultural heritage sectors.

Please see below all the details.

Thanks in advance for all your help,

Shani.

Dear Colleagues and friends,

We are Jane Winters, Professor of Digital Humanities at the University of
London, and Shani Evenstein Sigalov, Visiting Fellow at the Digital
Humanities Research Hub (DHRH) at the University of London. We are
interested in better understanding the implications of Generative AI on
knowledge consumption and knowledge production processes and we are
reaching out to* invite you to participate in a survey on ‘Attitudes
towards Generative AI in Research, Cultural Heritage, and Education’.*

The aim of this research is to gain insight into understandings and uses of
AI in professional practice, and specifically in research, higher education
and the cultural heritage sector, and to explore attitudes to these
developing technologies. This will inform further research into issues of
trust and the value of structured data and human expertise when designing
and implementing Generative AI tools.

As a researcher / practitioner in one or more of these fields, your
insights will be invaluable in understanding the current landscape and
future potential of generative AI applications. The survey should take
between 10-15 minutes (depending on how much you would like to share), and
your responses will remain confidential.

Here is a shareable link to the survey:

We would also be grateful if you could also share the link to the survey
with relevant colleagues, fellow educators, and professionals in the
cultural heritage sector. By participating and spreading the word, you are
directly contributing to the growth of knowledge in this rapidly evolving
field. The results of this survey will be shared openly in order to
contribute to an evidence base for the development of future policy and
practice.

The survey will be open until the end of May 2024, and we very much
appreciate your time and collaboration. If you have any questions about the
research, please feel free to email us.

Thank you very much for taking the time to complete this survey.

Best wishes,
