Harness the power of AI for research: How ChatGPT is changing the game

[@S317537]

Andy, I am currently pursuing in Masters in research, and I find your videos so helpful! I have learned so much from you on the many tools available, time management, and much more that I share with others. Thank you for the work you do! You have no idea how much you have helped me (and so many others). Have a blessed day

[@DrAndyStapleton]

You are so welcome! Thank you for your support!

[@Maariu01]

When it first came out i had a go at it to help me with my phd then realised a few things that were not good: 1. only provides answers in usa english even IF you put in AUS or NZ english it still misses parts out 2. some of the sources it provided were not the correct authors 3. chatgpt can provide examples of how to summarise academic writing or grammar which is good but im glad i checked because there were some major mistakes it would jumble up some words Still a good tool

[@micbab-vg2mu]

By leveraging the power of ChatGPT, I am able to elevate my writing to new heights. I craft the core message with my own words, and then ask ChatGPT to transform it into a more captivating, persuasive, and easily digestible form. The result is a superior piece of writing that truly resonates with its intended audience

[@mirandaguillen99]

And you wrote this using chatgpt didn’t you?

[@VendettatheGreat]

I'm hoping to start my PhD in the fall. I'm quite excited to see what the power of ChatGPT and other AI tools can do for my academic journey. I think it will be an invaluable first approach to writing papers and grant applications like you demonstrated. Especially when you are having writer's block.

[@johngriffon]

I'm beginning my Electrical and Computer Engineering degree tomorrow. I discovered ChatGPT two days ago, and have been playing around with it. Truly revolutionary. Just from two days of use, I have decided to use it as my primary tool to supplement my studies. It can easily substitute a lecturer, study buddy and even examiner with ease. Will try to document my use of it throughout my degree.

[@hiyalanguages]

Andy, there are tools out there that can easily detect whether a text was written by AI. I use it for ideas, as a starting point or for checking concepts, etc... So, if a student is submitting a piece of work, it should be written by them, as humanly as possible.

[@josecavazos1194]

Andy, the use of chatGPT is a concern that has circulated among admission officers. One of the statements that applicants will need to check in the near future in their application is that they wrote their essays. While I agree with your proposed use to serve as another editor "friend" or "mentor", essays and openings need to sound as the applicant's journey. Perhaps, you could elaborate in a future video. Happy to chat or zoom at some point. Just got your $10 bundle yesterday. As NIH grant reviewer, it is hard to read a truly bad grant, but it will be harder to dissect out the style to the bone of the logic. I think that would make it more opinionated. Great job, mate! Now, we are going to have Bard and other tools...

[@brucequinn]

Very good, I am getting a lot of ideas from your channel. I came across another interesting idea. I wrote a 10 page report with a one page single spaced executive summary. I’ll let chat GPT make a brief paragraph summary. It did a very good job. This occurred to me. If you put your executive summary or your introduction into chat GPT, to summarize, and chat GPT comes out as a garbled, confusing mess, it probably means that your human page of writing is not nearly as lucid as you hoped it was.

[@SamYoungnz]

Hey Andy, thanks for your vlogs: they are very interesting. On your recommendation I had a crack using ChatGPT, but I found that I could not trust the output. I found that the ai - as a predictor of 'next word' - invented fundamentally flawed summaries.

[@rameshvahidi5929]

If I am going to recruit a student based on their personal persuasive statement, I will accept the one who had written less persuasive or even a factual one of their own effort and make rather than the one written by ChatGPT. If a person is masking their lack of motivation or ability to make efforts in persuading others, educators and them will have an issue along the way. Of course, unless they keep eating ChatGPT for breakfast, lunch and dinner to always show persuasive! I still value genuine thoughts and efforts, unless the aim is just ticking the admission boxes to enter a course, no matter what!

[@WelsPreits]

@Andy Could you make a video on where you think the border is between plagiarism / attesting it is your own work etc. If I write a paragraph or a research section, and my English is not the best or the most extensive, and I ask chatgpt to “clean it up” or “make it flow better”, does that count as “not my own work” when I gave it the paragraph etc to re write?

[@sultanateofoman]

good question. also what if i let it summarise to produce an introduction or a conclusion for example.

[@sciencefliestothemoon2305]

Well, I recommend the grant reviewers try something revolutionary such as look at the pure factual and leave the emotions on the side. As soon as someone appeals to emotions in a grant it should be put under extensive scrutiny before considered further.

[@ni5439]

Asking a human to be purely analytical and leave emotions aside is impossible. You can see plenty of scientific debates that, although based on science, still have some emotional thinking on both sides.

[@sciencefliestothemoon2305]

@@ni5439 Doubtful, and if one is so succeptible to such obvious manipulation than one should not be a grant application reviewer. Regarding scientific discussions, most are not very scientif but agenda driven and agendas are often not science but money driven.

[@ni5439]

@@sciencefliestothemoon2305 People are not robots. It's hard to ignore part of the brain mechanism, even if you think you are being objective, there's always some sort of bias involved. And the emotions can play a role in that small bias. You can try to rationalize and analyze those emotions to reduce their impact on your choices, but that will always come after you already felt them No. I'm talking about scientific debates involving the fundamentals of how the world works. For example, continental drift is a relatively new model that had a lot of debate. And still to this day some senior scientists haven't fully abandoned the old models they studied or researched when they were young. There's no secret agenda in that, just people who most likely got emotionally attached to an old paradigm.

[@johnbarryyallagher1128]

Looks good, but now comes the arms race when your competition is also using this means to persuade, lol. Perhaps put it through other paraphrasing AI sites for more options or choose what seems to converge between AI tools. A Robustness Analysis.

[@Val-sk5yo]

Hello Andy! Do you think having a personal website as a young researcher would be helpful? I think it will be really good and really helpful to me if you make a video about this topic. If it turns out to be a useful thing please give me some recommendations on how to go about creating a personal website and the things I should write about on my website

[@eliotcougar]

Just yesterday I've used ChatGPT to edit an entire scientific article... English is not the first language for me or my colleagues, and the article they wrote was quite badly written... Like one of the reviewers said "It was very hard for me to read the manuscript as the grammar problem often changed the meaning conveyed in the sentences." I used a seed prompt that I think was good enough for this kind of editing... We went through the entire article paragraph by paragraph... It produced very well-written and grammatically correct text... There were a couple of funny moments... Like, it usually just gave me rewritten text, but one time it said that "the paragraph doesn't seem to have any grammatical errors"... Unexpected... Then in one case it decided to move one of the sentences to the end of the paragraph... I thought "hmmm, i wonder why it did that"... Then I thought "wait, I can just ask"... So I asked, and it explained how it was more logical that way and that it tied in the facts in the paragraph together... And that was correct... And when we were editing the Results section of the article, I entered the next paragraph, and it said that it seems that the paragraph doesn't present any results, but rather just gives background information on the topic, and that it should probably be moved somewhere else.

[@douglasengle2704]

Thank you for demonstrating the re versing ability of ChatGPT. This is a function I could see it being a big help in trying to get one's writing style changed to where one was not thinking. I do think it will lead to generic sounding sentencing when in some situations the core idea is still not quite developed. I tried ChatGPT as a substitute for Google search with the trick question "What causes global warming?" It returned the United Nation's IPCC response. The correct answer was "The cause of global warming is not know." So much for AI for now, but maybe it can help a bit with some word smithing.

How do you summarize large files? ChatGPT told me it could only summarize 2048 words on my platform.

[@gamingmarcus]

What an amazing potential this tech has. I love it, well apart from the PhD application. I know this flowery language is supposed to evoke positive emotions but it just wants to make me throw up. For something like that application I like to imagine the actual human having a conversation with me and saying these exact words. I'd feel so weirded out, because this is not how a normal person would speak, unless they're full of crap and trying to cover it by using fancy and persuasively distracting language. But I guess that's fitting since the AI was asked to write in the style of a politician. Their speeches are notorious for being 20 minutes long and not saying anything of substance.

[@devydowner]

Fantastic! I also think it can be useful as a minor-co-advisor. It's most useful if you already have a really good understanding of the topic. But it's been useful for me in explaining things like the intuition behind parameters in some math equations.

[@DrFurb]

I'm conflicted. I'm not sure I fully agree with the advice here about grants. That's a risky strategy and could invoke unfavorable opinions about me and my work if it came out. Ultimately, some of that text, isn't yours, and for all intents and purposes, it’s fake.

[@ni5439]

If we are judging original text over main idea, then any text that has gone through a grammar or spelling check program is also fake text.

[@vtheb1299]

Tbh I'm not convinced. The first revision is much lengthier than the original, and those grant abstracts have stringent word limits. The repetition of "necessary" and "need" leads to a logical fallacy and lost me. It makes so many unsupported claims that my bs detector went in the red. I find the original more convincing and the second one dangerously blabla-y and PR-y - the kind that doesn't have a place in science. It breaks the first rule of Strunk & White: omit needless words. I think really the best way to improve a text is to show it to your colleagues.
