AI2: Where Artificial Intelligence and Appreciative Inquiry Meet

The year 2022 marked a turning point in the world of Artificial Intelligence. Several powerful tools based on generative language models were introduced, making Artificial Intelligence technology a lot easier to use. This issue includes articles written by a diverse group of contributors, some experienced Appreciative Inquiry practitioners, others experts in Artificial Intelligence. They explore the topic from different angles, covering what is already possible, what might be possible in the future and what we should keep in mind when bringing in this powerful technology into our practice. 

Join the editors, David Shaked and Vivian Hau,  and contributors to the September issue of the AI Practitioner Journal for a conversation about what they learned and where the intersection of Appreciative Inquiry and Artificial Intelligence might be headed!
