Current buzz about artificial intelligence is about machine learning processing lots of information and then making predictions. It's almost the same concept as big data. The Licensing Privacy project has a checklist for assessing vendor contracts for privacy (ie. for the ability of vendors to collect information about library patrons). That's here https://publish.illinois.edu/licensingprivacy/contracts/ . It's a similar concept, because it affects how library information and information about patron behavior will or won't be available for use in training sets and for analysis.
