Launching ChatGPT Voice Chat on an iPhone 12 with back-tap
In today's issue of Ethan Mollick's One Useful Thing, I learned that the iPhone 15 has a unique button I hadn't paid any attention to – the action button. He mentioned how the action button can be used to launch a voice chat with ChatGPT, and I found instructions at TechCrunch. But I only have…

New Artificial Intelligence LibGuide
I wish I'd put it together, but it was my colleague, Bronte Chiang, who just released this fantastic LibGuide on Artificial Intelligence.
