Teaching and Learning with AI Conference

The University of South Florida Digital Initiatives Unit works to improve search engine optimization by leveraging robust metadata, transcription, and descriptions generated by artificial intelligence (AI). Inconsistent metadata, uneven text extraction or transcription, and limited descriptive context reduce access to digital collections of all formats. This session examines how AI can improve audiovisual transcription, hand-written document transcription, and enhance descriptive metadata within repository environments. Using staff-scalable workflows, presenters demonstrate how AI-assisted, human-in-the-loop text generation can strengthen titles, abstracts, and subject terms while embedding ethical considerations such as consent, representation, and privacy.
