Writing and peer review

Verify AI-generated references, check DOI records, read supporting passages, and keep a claim-by-claim log before using citations in your research.

Science asks whether AI is ready for peer review, Nature asks who is responsible when AI helps write a paper, and a new PNAS framework brings causal inference to text and images.

A new analysis puts LLM-assisted writing in nearly 90% of recent PubMed Central papers. Meanwhile, management scholars argue the valuable skill is no longer prompting AI — it's directing it.

A 7.3-million-article study says most published papers now show signs of LLM influence — and a new PNAS exchange argues the yardstick itself is broken. Plus: when AI teams don't need to coordinate, ML from 14 examples, and 500 years of art in latent space.

A four-study look at when humans take AI financial advice, a blueprint for governing AI in peer review, and new tools for doing inference with machine-generated variables.

AI creativity compared to human imagination: while large language models generate patterns based on training data, human creativity draws from unique experiences and emotions. Setting the Stage: AI and Creativity Large language models (LLMs) are advancing at a remarkable speed. From writing stories and poetry to brainstorming ideas, their presence in creative work is undeniable. But here lies a fundamental question: can these models genuinely support collective creativity, or

This article, titled "Can Large Language Models Provide Useful Feedback on Research Papers? A Large-Scale Empirical Analysis", is a collaborative effort by a diverse team of researchers from various academic backgrounds and institutions. This study was published on July 17, 2024, in NEJM AI, volume 1, issue 8. The article explores the potential of large language models (LLMs) in providing useful feedback on research papers, presenting a large-scale empirical analysis to addre

As an editor for the academic journals "Personality and Individual Differences" and "Psychology of Leaders and Leadership," Dritjon Gruda shares his valuable insights on leveraging the capabilities of ChatGPT to enhance academic writing in a recent article published in the prestigious journal "Nature." The article, titled "Three ways ChatGPT helps me in my academic writing," explores how this powerful AI tool can be used to refine research papers, assist in peer review, and i

Proofread academic writing with a correction-only AI prompt, tracked changes, and checks that protect technical terms, numerical values and meaning.

A study of review reports identifies dozens of adjectives that could indicate text written with the help of chatbots. A study [preprint, not yet peer reviewed] led by Weixin Liang from Stanford University suggests that up to 17% of peer-review reports for computer science conferences may have been substantially modified by AI chatbots like ChatGPT. The study identified certain adjectives, such as 'commendable', 'innovative', and 'meticulous', that are used more frequently in
