Frequently asked questions

Can i use generative ai to write and/or develop research papers.

Academic publishers have a range of policies on the use of AI in research papers. In some cases, publishers may prohibit the use of AI for certain aspects of paper development. You should review the specific policies of the target publisher to determine what is permitted.

Here is a sampling of policies available online:

• JAMA and the JAMA Network
• Springer Nature

How should AI-generated content be cited in research papers?

Guidance will likely develop as AI systems evolve, but some leading style guides have offered recommendations:

• The Chicago Manual of Style
• MLA Style Guide

Should I disclose the use of generative AI in a research paper?

Yes. Most academic publishers require researchers using AI tools to document this use in the methods or acknowledgements sections of their papers. You should review the specific guidelines of the target publisher to determine what is required.

Can I use AI in writing grant applications?

You should review the specific policies of potential funders to determine if the use of AI is permitted. For its part, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) advises caution : “If you use an AI tool to help write your application, you also do so at your own risk,” as these tools may inadvertently introduce issues associated with research misconduct, such as plagiarism or fabrication.

Can I use AI in the peer review process?

Many funders have not yet published policies on the use of AI in the peer review process. However, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has prohibited such use “for analyzing and formulating peer review critiques for grant applications and R&D contract proposals.” You should carefully review the specific policies of funders to determine their stance on the use of AI

Are there AI safety concerns or potential risks I should be aware of?

Yes. Some of the primary safety issues and risks include the following:

• Bias and discrimination: The potential for AI systems to exhibit unfair or discriminatory behavior.
• Misinformation, impersonation, and manipulation: The risk of AI systems disseminating false or misleading information, or being used to deceive or manipulate individuals.
• Research and IP compliance: The necessity for AI systems to adhere to legal and ethical guidelines when utilizing proprietary information or conducting research.
• Security vulnerabilities: The susceptibility of AI systems to hacking or unauthorized access.
• Unpredictability: The difficulty in predicting the behavior or outcomes of AI systems.

Research Writing and Generative AI Large Language Models

A rapidly evolving phenomenon impacting higher education is the availability of generative artificial intelligence systems [such as Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer or ChatGPT]. These systems have been developed from scanning text from millions of books, web sites, and other sources to enable algorithms within the system to learn patterns in how words and sentences are constructed. This allows the platforms to respond to a broad range of questions and prompts, generate stories, compose essays, create lists, and more. Generative AI systems are not actually thinking or understanding like a human, but they are good at mimicking written text based on what it has learned from the sources of input data used to build and enhance its artificial intelligence algorithms, protocols, and standards.

As such, generative AI systems [a.k.a., “Large Language Models”] have emerged , depending on one’s perspective, as either a threat or an opportunity in how faculty create or modify class assignments and how students approach the task of writing a college-level research paper. We are in the early stages of understanding how LLMs may impact learning outcomes associated with information literacy, i.e., fluency in effectively applying the skills needed to effectively identify, gather, organize, critically evaluate, interpret, and report information. However, before this is fully understood, Large Language Models w ill continue to improve and become more sophisticated, as will academic integrity detection programs used to identify AI generated text in student papers.

When assigned to write a research paper, it is up to your professor if using ChatGTP is permitted or not. Some professors embrace using these systems as part of an in-class writing exercise to help understand their limitations, while others will warn against its use because of their current defects and biases. That said, the future of information seeking using LLMs means that the intellectual spaces associated with research and writing will likely collapse into a single online environment in which students will be able to perform in-depth searches for information connected to the Libraries' many electronic resources.

As LLMs quickly become more sophisticated, here are some potential ways generative artificial intelligence programs could facilitate organizing and writing your social sciences research paper:

• Explore a Topic – develop a research problem related to the questions you have about a general subject of inquiry.
• Formulate Ideas – obtain background information and explore ways to place the research problem within specific contexts .
• Zero in on Specific Research Questions and Related Sub-questions – create a query-based framework for how to investigate the research problem.
• Locate Sources to Answer those Questions – begin the initial search for sources concerning your research questions.
• Obtain Summaries of Sources – build a synopsis of the sources to help determine their relevance to the research questions underpinning the problem.
• Outline and Structure an Argument – present information that assists in formulating an argument or an explanation for a stated position.
• Draft and Iterate on a Final Essay – create a final essay based on a process of repeating the action of text generation on the results of each prior action [i.e., ask follow up questions to build on or clarify initial results].

Despite their power to create text, generative AI systems are far from perfect and their ability to “answer” questions can be misleading, deceiving, or outright false. Described below are some current problems adapted from an essay written by Bernard Marr at Forbes Magazine and reiterated by researchers studying LLMs and writing. These issues focus on problems with using ChatGPT, but they are applicable to any current Large Language Model program .

• Not Connected to the Internet . Although the generative AI systems may appear to possess a significant amount of information, most LLM’s are currently not mining the Internet for that information [note that this is changing quickly. For example, an AI chatbot feature is now embedded into Microsoft’s Bing search engine, but you'll probably need to pay for this feature in the future]. Without a connection to the Internet, LLMs cannot provide real-time information about a topic. As a result, the scope of research is limited and any new developments in a particular field of study will not be included in the responses. In addition, the LLMs can only accept input in text format. Therefore, other forms of knowledge such as videos, web sites, audio recordings, or images, are excluded as part of the inquiry prompts.
• The Time-consuming Consequences of AI Generated Hallucinations . If proofreading AI generated text results in discovering nonsensical information or an invalid list of scholarly sources [e.g., the title of a book is not in the library catalog or found anywhere online], you obviously must correct these errors before handing in your paper. The challenge is that you have to replace nonsensical or false statements with accurate information and you must support any AI generated declarative statements [e.g., "Integrated reading strategies are widely beneficial for children in middle school"] with citations to valid academic research that supports this argument . This requires reviewing the literature to locate real sources and real information, which is time consuming and challenging if you didn't actually compose the text. And, of course, if your professor asks you to show what page in a book or journal article you got the information from to support a generated statement of fact, well, that's a problem. Given this, ChatGPT and other systems should be viewed as a help tool and never a shortcut to actually doing the work of investigating a research problem.
• Trouble Generating Long-form, Structured Content . ChatGPT and other systems are inadequate at producing long-form content that follows a particular structure, format, or narrative flow. The models are capable of creating coherent and grammatically correct text and, as a result, they are currently best suited for generating shorter pieces of content like summaries of topics, bullet point lists, or brief explanations. However, they are poor at creating a comprehensive, coherent, and well-structured college-level research paper.
• Limitations in Handling Multiple Tasks . Generative AI systems perform best when given a single task or objective to focus on. If you ask LLMs to perform multiple tasks at the same time [e.g., a question that includes multiple sub-questions], the models struggle to prioritize them, which will lead to a decrease in the accuracy and reliability of the results.
• Biased Responses . This is important to understand. While ChatGPT and other systems are trained on a large set of text data, that data has not been widely shared so that it can be reviewed and critically analyzed. You can ask the systems what sources they are using, but any responses can not be independently verified. Therefore, it is not possible to identify any hidden biases or prejudices that exist within the data [i.e., it doesn't cite its sources]. This means the LLM may generate responses that are biased, discriminatory, or inappropriate in certain contexts .
• Accuracy Problems or Grammatical Issues . The sensitivity to typographical errors, grammatical errors, and misspellings is currently very limited in LLMs. The models may produce responses that are technically correct, but they may not be entirely accurate in terms of context or relevance. This limitation can be particularly challenging when processing complex or specialized information where accuracy and precision are essential. Given this, never take the information that is generated at face value; always proofread and verify the results!

As they currently exist, ChatGPT and other Large Language Models truly are artificial in their intelligence. They cannot express thoughts, feelings, or other affective constructs that help a reader intimately engage with the author's written words; the output contains text, but the systems are incapable of producing creative expressions or thoughts, such as, conveying the idea of willful deception and other narrative devices that you might find in a poem or song lyric. Although creative devices, such as metaphors, idioms, imagery or subtleties in narrative rhythm, style, or voice, are rarely used in academic writing, it does illustrate that personalizing the way you present your research [e.g., sharing a personal story relating to the significance of the topic or being asked to write a reflective paper ] cannot be generated artificially.

Ethical Considerations

In the end, the ethical choice of whether to use ChatGTP or similar platforms to help write your research paper is up to you; it’s an introspective negotiation between you and your conscience. As noted by Bjork (2023) and others, though, it is important to keep in mind the overarching ethical problems related to the use of LLMs. These include:

• LLMs Do Not Understand the Meaning of Words . Without meaning as a guide, these systems use algorithms that rely on formulating context clues, stylistic structures, writing forms, linguistic patterns, and word frequency in determining how to respond to queries. This functionality means that, by default, LLMs perpetuate dominant modes of writing and language use while minimizing or hiding less common ones. As a result,...
• LLMs Prioritize Standard American English . White English-speaking men have dominated most writing-intensive sectors of the knowledge economy, such as, journalism, law, politics, medicine, academia, and perhaps most importantly, computer programming. As a result, writers and speakers of African American, Indigenous English, and other sociolinguistic dialects that use forms of language with its own grammar, lexicon, slang, and history of resistance within the dominant culture, are penalized and shamed for writing as they speak. The default functionality and outputs of LLMs, therefore, can privilege forms of English writing developed primarily by the dominant culture.
• LLMs Do Not Protect User Privacy . ChatGPT and other platforms record and retain the entire content of your conversations with the systems. This means any information you enter, including personal information or, for example, any documents you ask the systems to revise is retained and cannot be removed. Although the American Data Privacy and Protection Act was being considered within the 117th Congress, there is no federal privacy law that regulates how these for-profit companies can store, use, or possibly sell information entered into their platforms. Given this, it is highly recommended that personal information should never be included in any queries.

NOTE:   If your professor allows you to use generative AI programs or you decide on your own to use an LLM for a writing assignment, then this fact should be cited in your research paper, just as any other source of information used to write your paper should be acknowledged. Why? Because unlike grammar or citation tools, such as Grammarly or Citation Machine that correct text you've already written, generative AI programs are creating new content that is not in your own words. Currently, the American Psychological Association (APA), Modern Language Association (MLA) and the Chicago Manual of Style provide recommendations on how to cite generated text.

ANOTHER NOTE: LLMs have significant deficiencies that still require attention to thorough proofreading and source verification, an ability to discern quality information from misleading, false, irrelevant, or even made up information, a capacity to interpret and critically analyze what you have found, and the skills required to extrapolate meaning from the research your have conducted. For help with any or all of these elements of college-level research and writing, you should still contact a librarian for help.

YET ANOTHER NOTE: Researchers are finding early evidence that suggests over-reliance on ChatGPT and other LLM platforms for even the simplest writing task may, over time, undermine confidence in a student's own writing ability. Just like getting better at giving a class presentation or working on a group project, good writing is an acquired skill that can only be improved upon through the act of doing; the more you write, the more comfortable and confident you become expressing your own ideas, opinions, and judgements applied to the problem you have researched. Substituting LLMs with your own voice can inhibit your growth as a writer, so give yourself room to think and write creatively and with confidence by accepting LLMs as a tool rather than a definitive source of text.

Using AI tools

AI Writing Tools | Definition, Uses & Implications

AI writing tools are artificial intelligence (AI) software applications like ChatGPT that help to automate or assist the writing process. These tools use machine learning algorithms to generate human-sounding text in response to users’ text-based prompts.

Other AI tools, such as grammar checkers , paraphrasers and summarizers serve more specific functions, like identifying grammar and spelling mistakes or rephrasing text.

Table of contents

How do ai writing tools work, what can ai writing tools be used for, implications of ai writing tools, other interesting articles, frequently asked questions about ai writing tools.

AI writing tools (chatbots, grammar checkers, etc.) use natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, machine learning , and large language models (LLMs) to generate or improve written text. These tools are trained to identify patterns in vast amounts of data. The tools then use these patterns to analyze human inputs (or prompts) and generate natural-sounding outputs (similar to how predictive text works).

Different AI tools may be programmed in different ways. For example, ChatGPT, the popular chatbot developed by OpenAI and released in November 2022, uses generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) and was trained using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) , meaning that the tool was given feedback from humans to help guide it towards the most helpful responses.

AI writing tools have a number of helpful applications. Some of these applications are discussed below.

Interactive learning and feedback

Generative AI tools can be helpful resources for conversational learning. By inputting questions, users can engage in interactive learning at any time.

You can also prompt these tools to provide feedback on your work to improve the clarity or consistency of your writing. However, it’s important not to upload sensitive information, as user inputs are generally saved by the tool for the purposes of training future models.

Below is an example of how ChatGPT can be used for interactive learning.

Example: Using ChatGPT for interactive learning

• Tell me three facts about Carthaginian culture
• Carthaginians were known for their maritime trade and commerce, and their navy was one of the strongest in the ancient Mediterranean world. They established colonies and trading posts throughout the Mediterranean, including in Sicily, Sardinia, and North Africa.
• Carthaginians had a polytheistic religion, and their chief deity was Baal Hammon, the god of fertility, agriculture, and the sky. They also worshiped a number of other gods and goddesses, including Tanit, the goddess of love, fertility, and war.
• Carthaginians were skilled metalworkers and produced a variety of metal goods, including weapons, armor, jewelry, and household objects. They were particularly famous for their bronze work, which was highly prized in the ancient world. Carthaginian bronze was so valued that it was used by the Romans to make their famous statues and other works of art.
• Tell me three more facts about the Carthaginian navy
• The Carthaginian navy was one of the most advanced and powerful navies of the ancient world. It was instrumental in establishing Carthage as a dominant power in the Mediterranean region.
• The Carthaginians were known for their skill in shipbuilding and developed a variety of ship types for different purposes, including warships, transport ships, and cargo ships. One of their most famous ship types was the quinquereme, a large warship with five rows of oars.
• The Carthaginian navy was led by a commander called the “admiral.” The admiral was responsible for overseeing the fleet and making strategic decisions about naval warfare. One of the most famous Carthaginian admirals was Hannibal Barca, who led the Carthaginian fleet during the First Punic War against Rome.

Generating research questions and outlines

AI writing tools can be used to generate potential research questions or research paper outlines . You can then refine the tool’s responses by further prompting it or directly editing the output yourself to ensure the result makes sense and fits your requirements.

Below is an example of how ChatGPT can be used to generate potential reseach questions and research method ideas.

Example: Using ChatGPT to generate research questions and methods

• Develop three possible research questions on the following topic: “The influence of technology on second language acquisition.”
• What is the impact of technology-assisted language learning (TALL) on the acquisition of a second language?
• How do different types of technology, such as mobile applications, virtual reality, and online platforms, affect second language acquisition outcomes?
• How do individual learner characteristics, such as age, proficiency level, and motivation, interact with the use of technology in second language acquisition?
• Suggest three quantitative research methods appropriate to the second question.
• Experimental research: This research method involves manipulating an independent variable (in this case, the type of technology used) to observe its effect on a dependent variable (second language acquisition outcomes). Participants would be randomly assigned to different groups using different types of technology to learn a second language, and then their language acquisition outcomes would be measured and compared.
• Survey research: This research method involves using questionnaires to gather data from a large group of participants. In this case, a survey could be designed to gather information on participants’ use of different types of technology to learn a second language, as well as their language acquisition outcomes. This would allow for a large-scale investigation of how different types of technology are being used, and what their impact might be.
• Correlational research: This research method involves examining the relationship between two or more variables. In this case, a correlational study could be conducted to investigate whether there is a relationship between the type of technology used and language acquisition outcomes. Data could be collected from participants using different types of technology to learn a second language, and then the correlation between the type of technology and language acquisition outcomes could be calculated.

Paraphrasing text

AI tools like ChatGPT and Scribbr’s free paraphrasing tool can help you paraphrase text to express your ideas more clearly, avoid repetition, and maintain a consistent tone throughout your writing.

They can also help you incorporate scholarly sources in your writing in a more concise and fluent way, without the need for direct quotations. However, it’s important to correctly cite all sources to avoid accidental plagiarism.

Summarizing text

AI writing tools can help condense a text to its most important and relevant ideas. This can help you understand complex information more easily. You can also use summarizer tools on your own work to summarize your central argument, clarify your research question, and form conclusions.

You can do this using generative AI tools or more specialized tools like Scribbr’s free text-summarizer .

Proofreading text

AI writing tools can be used to identify spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes and suggest corrections. These tools can help to improve the clarity of your writing and avoid common mistakes .

While AI tools like ChatGPT offer useful suggestions, they can also potentially miss some mistakes or even introduce new grammatical errors into your writing.

We advise using Scribbr’s proofreading and editing service  or a tool like Scribbr’s free grammar checker , which is designed specifically for this purpose.

Translating text

AI translation tools like Google Translate can be used to translate text from a source language into various target languages. While the quality of these tools tend to vary depending on the languages used, they’re constantly developing and are increasingly accurate.

While there are many benefits to using AI writing tools, some commentators have emphasized the limitations of AI tools and the potential disadvantages of using them. These drawbacks are discussed below.

Impact on learning

One of the potential pitfalls of using AI writing tools is the effect they might have on a student’s learning and skill set. Using AI tools to generate a paper, thesis , or dissertation , for example, may impact a student’s research, critical thinking, and writing skills.

However, other commentators argue that AI tools can be used to promote critical thinking (e.g., by having a student evaluate a tool’s output and refine it).

Consistency and accuracy

Generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT) are not always trustworthy and sometimes produce results that are inaccurate or factually incorrect. Although these tools are programmed to answer questions, they can’t judge the accuracy of the information they provide and may generate incorrect answers or contradict themselves.

It’s important to verify AI-generated information against a credible source .

Grammatical mistakes

While generative AI tools can produce written text, they don’t actually understand what they’re saying and sometimes produce grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes.

You can combine the use of generative AI tools with Scribbr’s grammar checker , which is designed to catch these mistakes.

Ethics and plagiarism

As AI writing tools are trained on large sets of data, they may produce content that is similar to existing content (which they usually cannot cite correctly), which can be considered plagiarism.

Furthermore, passing off AI-generated text as your own work is usually considered a form of plagiarism and is likely to be prohibited by your university. This offense may be recognized by your university’s plagiarism checker or AI detector .

AI writing tools can be used to perform a variety of tasks.

Generative AI writing tools (like ChatGPT ) generate text based on human inputs and can be used for interactive learning, to provide feedback, or to generate research questions or outlines.

These tools can also be used to paraphrase or summarize text or to identify grammar and punctuation mistakes. Y ou can also use Scribbr’s free paraphrasing tool , summarizing tool , and grammar checker , which are designed specifically for these purposes.

Using AI writing tools (like ChatGPT ) to write your essay is usually considered plagiarism and may result in penalization, unless it is allowed by your university . Text generated by AI tools is based on existing texts and therefore cannot provide unique insights. Furthermore, these outputs sometimes contain factual inaccuracies or grammar mistakes.

However, AI writing tools can be used effectively as a source of feedback and inspiration for your writing (e.g., to generate research questions ). Other AI tools, like grammar checkers, can help identify and eliminate grammar and punctuation mistakes to enhance your writing.

8 Best Topics for Research and Thesis in Artificial Intelligence

Imagine a future in which intelligence is not restricted to humans!!! A future where machines can think as well as humans and work with them to create an even more exciting universe. While this future is still far away, Artificial Intelligence has still made a lot of advancement in these times. There is a lot of research being conducted in almost all fields of AI like Quantum Computing, Healthcare, Autonomous Vehicles, Internet of Things , Robotics , etc. So much so that there is an increase of 90% in the number of annually published research papers on Artificial Intelligence since 1996.

Keeping this in mind, if you want to research and write a thesis based on Artificial Intelligence, there are many sub-topics that you can focus on. Some of these topics along with a brief introduction are provided in this article. We have also mentioned some published research papers related to each of these topics so that you can better understand the research process.

Table of Content

1. Machine Learning

2. deep learning, 3. reinforcement learning, 4. robotics, 5. natural language processing (nlp), 6. computer vision, 7. recommender systems, 8. internet of things.

So without further ado, let’s see the different Topics for Research and Thesis in Artificial Intelligence!

Machine Learning involves the use of Artificial Intelligence to enable machines to learn a task from experience without programming them specifically about that task. (In short, Machines learn automatically without human hand holding!!!) This process starts with feeding them good quality data and then training the machines by building various machine learning models using the data and different algorithms. The choice of algorithms depends on what type of data do we have and what kind of task we are trying to automate.

However, generally speaking, Machine Learning Algorithms are generally divided into 3 types: Supervised Machine Learning Algorithms , Unsupervised Machine Learning Algorithms , and Reinforcement Machine Learning Algorithms . If you are interested in gaining practical experience and understanding these algorithms in-depth, check out the Data Science Live Course by us.

Deep Learning is a subset of Machine Learning that learns by imitating the inner working of the human brain in order to process data and implement decisions based on that data. Basically, Deep Learning uses artificial neural networks to implement machine learning. These neural networks are connected in a web-like structure like the networks in the human brain (Basically a simplified version of our brain!).

This web-like structure of artificial neural networks means that they are able to process data in a nonlinear approach which is a significant advantage over traditional algorithms that can only process data in a linear approach. An example of a deep neural network is RankBrain which is one of the factors in the Google Search algorithm.

Reinforcement Learning is a part of Artificial Intelligence in which the machine learns something in a way that is similar to how humans learn. As an example, assume that the machine is a student. Here the hypothetical student learns from its own mistakes over time (like we had to!!). So the Reinforcement Machine Learning Algorithms learn optimal actions through trial and error.

This means that the algorithm decides the next action by learning behaviors that are based on its current state and that will maximize the reward in the future. And like humans, this works for machines as well! For example, Google’s AlphaGo computer program was able to beat the world champion in the game of Go (that’s a human!) in 2017 using Reinforcement Learning.

Robotics is a field that deals with creating humanoid machines that can behave like humans and perform some actions like human beings. Now, robots can act like humans in certain situations but can they think like humans as well? This is where artificial intelligence comes in! AI allows robots to act intelligently in certain situations. These robots may be able to solve problems in a limited sphere or even learn in controlled environments.

An example of this is Kismet , which is a social interaction robot developed at M.I.T’s Artificial Intelligence Lab. It recognizes the human body language and also our voice and interacts with humans accordingly. Another example is Robonaut , which was developed by NASA to work alongside the astronauts in space.

It’s obvious that humans can converse with each other using speech but now machines can too! This is known as Natural Language Processing where machines analyze and understand language and speech as it is spoken (Now if you talk to a machine it may just talk back!). There are many subparts of NLP that deal with language such as speech recognition, natural language generation, natural language translation , etc. NLP is currently extremely popular for customer support applications, particularly the chatbot . These chatbots use ML and NLP to interact with the users in textual form and solve their queries. So you get the human touch in your customer support interactions without ever directly interacting with a human.

Some Research Papers published in the field of Natural Language Processing are provided here. You can study them to get more ideas about research and thesis on this topic.

The internet is full of images! This is the selfie age, where taking an image and sharing it has never been easier. In fact, millions of images are uploaded and viewed every day on the internet. To make the most use of this huge amount of images online, it’s important that computers can see and understand images. And while humans can do this easily without a thought, it’s not so easy for computers! This is where Computer Vision comes in.

Computer Vision uses Artificial Intelligence to extract information from images. This information can be object detection in the image, identification of image content to group various images together, etc. An application of computer vision is navigation for autonomous vehicles by analyzing images of surroundings such as AutoNav used in the Spirit and Opportunity rovers which landed on Mars.

When you are using Netflix, do you get a recommendation of movies and series based on your past choices or genres you like? This is done by Recommender Systems that provide you some guidance on what to choose next among the vast choices available online. A Recommender System can be based on Content-based Recommendation or even Collaborative Filtering.

Content-Based Recommendation is done by analyzing the content of all the items. For example, you can be recommended books you might like based on Natural Language Processing done on the books. On the other hand, Collaborative Filtering is done by analyzing your past reading behavior and then recommending books based on that.

Artificial Intelligence deals with the creation of systems that can learn to emulate human tasks using their prior experience and without any manual intervention. Internet of Things , on the other hand, is a network of various devices that are connected over the internet and they can collect and exchange data with each other.

Now, all these IoT devices generate a lot of data that needs to be collected and mined for actionable results. This is where Artificial Intelligence comes into the picture. Internet of Things is used to collect and handle the huge amount of data that is required by the Artificial Intelligence algorithms. In turn, these algorithms convert the data into useful actionable results that can be implemented by the IoT devices.

The Range of Artificial Intelligence Thesis Topics

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly expanding field that has become integral to numerous industries, influencing everything from healthcare and finance to education and entertainment. As AI continues to evolve, it offers a vast array of thesis topics for students, each reflecting the depth and diversity of the discipline. The range of topics within AI not only allows students to explore their specific areas of interest but also provides an opportunity to contribute to the ongoing development of this transformative technology. Selecting a relevant and impactful thesis topic is crucial, as it can help shape the direction of one’s research and career, while also addressing significant challenges and opportunities in the field.

Current Issues in Artificial Intelligence

The field of artificial intelligence is currently facing several pressing issues that are critical to its development and application. One of the foremost challenges is the ethical considerations surrounding AI. As AI systems become more autonomous, the decisions they make can have profound implications, particularly in areas such as law enforcement, healthcare, and finance. The potential for AI to perpetuate or even exacerbate societal biases is a major concern, especially in systems that rely on historical data, which may contain inherent biases. Thesis topics such as “The Role of Ethics in AI Decision-Making” or “Addressing Bias in Machine Learning Algorithms” are crucial for students who wish to explore solutions to these ethical dilemmas.

Another significant issue in AI is the challenge of data privacy. As AI systems often require vast amounts of data to function effectively, the collection, storage, and use of this data raise important privacy concerns. With increasing scrutiny on how personal data is handled, particularly in light of regulations like the GDPR, ensuring that AI systems are both effective and respectful of user privacy is paramount. Students might consider thesis topics such as “Balancing Data Privacy and AI Innovation” or “The Impact of Data Privacy Regulations on AI Development” to delve into this critical area.

Furthermore, the transparency and explainability of AI models have become vital issues, particularly as AI systems are deployed in high-stakes environments such as healthcare and criminal justice. The so-called “black box” nature of many AI models, particularly deep learning algorithms, can make it difficult to understand how decisions are made, leading to concerns about accountability and trust. Topics like “Enhancing Explainability in AI Systems” or “The Importance of Transparency in AI Decision-Making” would allow students to explore these challenges and propose solutions that could improve the trustworthiness of AI systems.

Recent Trends in Artificial Intelligence

In addition to addressing current issues, artificial intelligence is also being shaped by several recent trends that are driving its development and application across various domains. One of the most significant trends is the rise of deep learning, a subset of machine learning that has achieved remarkable success in tasks such as image and speech recognition. Deep learning models, particularly neural networks, have revolutionized fields like computer vision and natural language processing (NLP), enabling new applications in areas such as autonomous vehicles and virtual assistants. Thesis topics that align with this trend include “Advances in Convolutional Neural Networks for Image Recognition” or “The Role of Deep Learning in Natural Language Processing.”

AI’s growing presence in healthcare is another major trend. From diagnostic tools to personalized treatment plans, AI is transforming the way healthcare is delivered. AI-driven systems can analyze vast datasets to identify patterns that may not be apparent to human clinicians, leading to earlier diagnoses and more effective treatments. The application of AI in genomics, for example, is paving the way for precision medicine, where treatments are tailored to the genetic profiles of individual patients. Students interested in this trend might explore topics such as “The Impact of AI on Precision Medicine” or “AI in Healthcare: Opportunities and Challenges.”

The development and deployment of autonomous systems, such as self-driving cars and drones, represent another significant trend in AI. These systems rely on advanced AI algorithms to navigate complex environments, make real-time decisions, and interact with humans and other machines. The challenges of ensuring safety, reliability, and ethical operation in these systems are ongoing areas of research. Thesis topics like “The Future of AI in Autonomous Vehicles” or “AI in Robotics: Balancing Autonomy and Safety” offer opportunities for students to contribute to this rapidly advancing field.

Future Directions in Artificial Intelligence

Looking ahead, the future of artificial intelligence promises to bring even more profound changes, driven by emerging technologies and new ethical frameworks. One of the most exciting developments on the horizon is the integration of AI with quantum computing. Quantum computing has the potential to exponentially increase the processing power available for AI algorithms, enabling the analysis of complex datasets and the solving of problems that are currently intractable. This could revolutionize fields such as drug discovery, climate modeling, and financial forecasting. Students interested in pioneering research could explore topics such as “Quantum Computing and Its Impact on AI Algorithms” or “The Role of Quantum AI in Solving Complex Problems.”

AI ethics is another area that is expected to see significant advancements. As AI systems become more pervasive, the need for robust ethical guidelines and governance frameworks will become increasingly important. These frameworks will need to address not only issues of bias and transparency but also the broader societal impacts of AI, such as its effect on employment and the distribution of power. Future-oriented thesis topics might include “Developing Ethical Guidelines for Autonomous AI Systems” or “The Role of AI Ethics in Shaping Public Policy.”

Finally, the application of AI in education is poised to transform the way we learn and teach. AI-driven tools can provide personalized learning experiences, adapt to the needs of individual students, and offer real-time feedback to educators. These tools have the potential to democratize education by making high-quality learning resources available to a global audience, regardless of location or socioeconomic status. Students interested in the intersection of AI and education might consider topics such as “The Future of AI in Personalized Learning” or “AI in Education: Bridging the Gap Between Access and Quality.”

In conclusion, the field of artificial intelligence offers a vast and diverse range of thesis topics, each with the potential to contribute to the ongoing development and ethical deployment of AI technologies. Whether addressing current issues such as bias and data privacy, exploring recent trends like deep learning and AI in healthcare, or looking toward future advancements in quantum computing and AI ethics, students have the opportunity to engage with topics that are both relevant and impactful. Selecting a well-defined and forward-thinking thesis topic is crucial for making meaningful contributions to the field and for advancing both academic knowledge and practical applications of AI.

How to Write a Research Paper (+ Free AI Research Paper Writer)

Table of contents

Meredith Sell

Over the years, I've managed to vastly improve how I write research papers.

The three major game-changers for me, in terms of quality of the finished piece, have been:

• Following the research paper checklist (see below)
• Developing the thesis before starting to write
• And, more recently, using AI to improve my research paper draft

Let's break down each of these elements and produce the kind of research papers that get cited in magazines.

FREE AI research paper writer > FREE AI research paper writer >

What is a research paper, and how is it written differently?

Research papers are longer and more in-depth than essays. They require extensive research and evidence-based arguments. Research papers also typically have a more formal structure and require citations and references.When academics want to find a balanced and comprehensive view on a given topic, they usually seek a research paper.

Like most writing assignments, a research paper can be broken down into simple steps. Research papers follow the same basic writing process as explanatory or persuasive essays — but instead of making an argument or drawing greater meaning from the topic, the research paper is primarily concerned with concrete facts that may be analyzed, examined, or interpreted to better understand the paper’s central topic.

This is good news if you enjoy research: you’ll be doing a lot of it. The ultimate quality of your paper depends on you conducting thorough, complete research — and relying on reputable sources.

How to Properly Write a Research Paper Using AI

1. make a checklist based on the assignment description, and fill it out with ai.

Your professor has likely specified some criteria for your research paper:

• Length (in pages or words)
• Type of topic (the War of 1812, ancient Greece, agriculture, etc.)
• Elements that must be included, such as analysis, discussion, and comparison.
• Types of sources you must draw from (academic papers, encyclopedias, etc.)
• Source attribution style
• Formatting style

Go through the assignment description and create a checklist of those criteria. You can use this checklist throughout the research and writing process as well:

AI can really help you get some traction with your research paper in the preperation stage. This includes two main steps:

• Brainstorming paper topic idea
• Outlining based on your topic, basing the prompt on the assignment

2. Choose a topic you’re curious about, or use AI to help you with that

A sure way to write a boring research paper is to pick a topic you have no interest in, like summer temperatures in the desert or the life cycle of a flea. (Though someone’s probably interested in those things.)

Instead, follow your curiosity.

If your paper is for a writing class, you may have a lot of freedom to choose what you write about, so tap into your interests. Are you intrigued by the history of roller skating or the invention of the soccer cleat? Or how teen social dynamics have changed with evolving technology (think: home phones → online instant messaging → flip phones → smartphones)?

If you’re writing for a class in a subject like history, art, or science, you’ll probably have more restrictions on what you can write about — like a time period or type of art or science — but you can still use your curiosity to pick an interesting topic.

If you’re having a tough time, try brainstorming a list of things you’ve wondered about. Ask “ what’s up with… ” and see what comes to mind.

For example:

What’s up with traffic circles and why are they supposedly better for traffic patterns than a light or four-way stop?

What’s up with country music sounding more and more like hip-hop?

What’s up with people who have gluten allergies being able to eat bread in Europe but not the US?

Once you have a list, choose the topic you find most interesting (and appropriate for the assignment).

If your mind draws a blank, you can utilize AI to help you choose a topic. Let's say your course is about mid century art. You can go to a tool like Wotdtune and ask it to give you ideas for creative mid century art essays. See example below.

3. Develop your thesis (and guide your research) by asking a research question

Even though a research paper may not necessarily take a side on a topic, it still needs a thesis, aka a central idea or focus that drives the piece from beginning to end. 

We wrote a whole guide on writing thesis statements , so here we’ll just give you this tip:

Use a research question to develop your thesis

A research question is a variation on the “What’s up with…” questions from the last tip — but it will zoom in more specifically on the aspect of your topic that you’re investigating.

Why were the Irish so dependent on potatoes?

Did any women in ancient Greece enjoy relative freedom and autonomy?

You may already know the answer to these questions, or you may not. Either way, they give you a place to start in your research. Once you have your question, set out to:

• Find the initial answer.
• Gather more context (the who, what, when, where, why, how) around that answer.
• Revise your research question and turn it into your thesis.

This process helps tighten your focus from a broad topic that could fill books to a specific angle that can be meaningfully explored in the few pages of your paper.

Instead of the potato famine , write about why England was to blame for the potato famine’s devastating effects on the Irish.

Instead of ancient Greece or women in ancient Greece , write about how Spartan women’s lives differed from the lives of women in Athens.

4. Skim sources and use AI to perform research for your paper

Your research question can help you quickly determine whether information is relevant to your paper. As you gather initial sources, skim them — and then use your research question to decide whether to keep or discard the source. 

Does the source cover information relevant to my research question?

Yes: Keep to read later.

No: Discard and move on to the next source.

This approach will save you precious research time. You won’t waste limited hours reading sources that don’t have a single helpful fact.

If skimming is hard for you (as a deep reader, I get it), Wordtune can help. Paste the link to your online source, upload a scanned PDF, or copy the text, and the tool will scan and summarize for you. You can always come back later and closely read the most useful sources.

5. Make note of the most interesting facts you find

Along with taking detailed notes of your research (complete with all the source info you need to make proper citations), highlight the most interesting facts you come across. You could stick these in a section together or mark them in a way that makes them stand out.

Why should you do this?

Because later on, one of these fascinating factoids could have a direct connection to your thesis — and make a great hook for the start of your paper. Instead of digging through all of your notes to try to remember what that interesting tidbit was, you’ll be able to find it easily.

6. Organize your research

There are plenty of ways to organize your notes, but I suggest breaking them up into subtopics and categories.

• Subtopic: A topic related to your main topic or thesis that needs to be explained and understood by readers in order to understand your main topic or thesis. For example: Land ownership in Ireland under British rule.
• Category: An overarching concept that several subtopics fall under. For example: British restrictions on the Irish.

To start, I would focus on the subtopics and then group them into categories.

As you organize, use the formatting tools in your word processor to tag headings and subheadings. For example, all categories would be an H2 (Heading 2), while all subtopics would be an H3 (Heading 3). 

Tagging your categories and subtopics this way will help you develop your outline. Just organize your categories and subtopics in a logical order, and you’ll have a skeleton of an outline ready to go.

7. Write with your research document open

No one can remember everything they found while researching — you’ll need to reference your research document throughout the writing process. No question there.

But you can make this easier (and keep your writing process efficient) by:

Keeping your research document open and in clear view.

I like to put my draft document and my research document side by side on my screen, so I can see them both at the same time. 

Another approach would be to paste the information you need directly into your draft document — in the order you’ll need it. (Your outline will help you know what you need.)

8. Steal the TK trick from journalists

In the middle of drafting your paper, you find that you’re missing a fact. 

You neglected to write down how many Irish people starved due to the potato famine.

You don’t know what age Spartan women were able to own property.

Instead of derailing your writing and searching for that information, write the sentence you want to write and stick a “TK” where the missing fact should go.

“TK” stands for “to come” (don't ask us why) and is a placeholder used by journalists to mark missing information they’ll fill in later. Using TK allows you to keep writing without getting off track every time you discover your research didn’t cover everything.

A whopping TK Irish people starved, thanks to the combination of famine and British oppression.

At age TK , Spartan girls became women who were able to own property, a right that their sisters in Athens did not enjoy.

9. Revise, explain, paraphrase with AI as your research/writing assistant

Using the right researching tools can get you a lot way.

If you’re ever at a loss for words — writing clunky, clumsy sentences, struggling to explain a concept, or having a hard time paraphrasing a source — Wordtune can serve as your AI sidekick.  

Simply highlight the sentence in question and browse Wordtune’s suggestion for a better wording.

You can also use Wordtune Spices to come up with examples and counter arguments for whatever you're writing about or even find stats and facts, complete with source citations

Wordtune doesn’t do all of the writing for you, but it can help you sharpen your ideas on the sentence level, so you can hand in a research paper with good writing that’s still very much your own.

Artificial intelligence (AI) natural language processing (NLP) systems, such as OpenAI’s generative pre-trained transformer (GPT) model ( https://openai.com ) or Meta’s Galactica ( https://galactica.org/ ) may soon be widely used in many forms of writing, including scientific and scholarly publications (Heaven Citation 2022 ). Footnote 1 While computer programs (such as Microsoft WORD and Grammarly) have incorporated automated text-editing features (such as checking for spelling and grammar) for many years, these programs are not designed to create content. However, new and emerging NLP systems are, which raises important issues for research ethics and research integrity. Footnote 2

NLP is a way of enabling computers to interact with human language. A key step in NLP, known as tokenization, involves converting unstructured text into structured text suitable for computation. For example, the sentence “The cat sat on the mat” can be structured by tagging its parts: “the [article] cat [noun] sat [verb, past tense] on [preposition] the [article] mat [noun].” Once the parts of the text have been tagged, they can be processed by means of algorithms designed to produce appropriate responses to text (i.e., language generation). Rudimentary NLP-systems, such as the first generation of chatbots that assisted customers on websites, operated according to thousands of human-written rules for processing and generating text.

Recent advances in computational speed and capacity and the development of machine-learning (ML) algorithms, such as neural networks, have led to tremendous breakthroughs in NLP (Mitchell Citation 2020 ). Today’s NLP systems use ML to produce and refine statistical models (with billions of parameters) for processing and generating natural language. NLP systems are trained on huge databases (45 terabytes or more) of text available on the internet or other sources. Initial training (or supervised learning) involves giving the system the text and then “rewarding” it for giving correct outputs, as determined by human trainers. Footnote 3 Over time, NLP systems will reduce their percentage of erroneous outputs and will learn from the data (Mitchell Citation 2020 ). While NLP systems continue to learn as they receive and process data beyond their initial training data, they do not “know” the meaning or truth-value of the text they receive, process, and generate. Their function is simply to generate understandable (i.e., grammatically correct) and appropriate (i.e., highly probable) text outputs in response to text inputs.

Research ethics and research integrity are two concepts that are closely related but not identical. Both are concerned with ensuring that research is conducted in a responsible and accountable manner, but they focus on different aspects of the research process.

Research ethics refers to the moral principles that guide the conduct of research. These principles include respect for human subjects, integrity in the research process, and the responsible use of research results. In other words, research ethics is concerned with the moral aspects of research and how it impacts those involved in the research and the broader community.

Research integrity, on the other hand, is concerned with the honesty and reliability of the research process. This includes ensuring that research is conducted in a transparent and unbiased manner, that data is accurately collected and analyzed, and that research findings are reported honestly and without distortion.

One key difference between research ethics and research integrity is that research ethics focuses on the moral principles that should guide research, whereas research integrity focuses on the specific practices and processes that ensure the reliability and honesty of research. Another difference is that research ethics is concerned with the impact of research on individuals and society, whereas research integrity is primarily concerned with the reliability and trustworthiness of the research itself.

Despite these differences, research ethics and research integrity are closely related and often overlap in practice. For example, the principle of respect for human subjects in research ethics is closely related to the need for transparency and honesty in the research process, which is a key aspect of research integrity. Similarly, the responsible use of research results, which is a key principle of research ethics, is closely tied to the reliability and trustworthiness of the research, which is an essential aspect of research integrity.

Overall, research ethics and research integrity are both important for ensuring that research is conducted in a responsible and accountable manner. While they focus on different aspects of the research process, they are closely related and must be considered together to ensure that research is conducted in a way that is ethical, reliable, and trustworthy

Immanuel Kant did not believe that ought implies can. In fact, he argued that the opposite was true: he believed that can implies ought. This means that, according to Kant, if someone is able to do something, then they have a moral obligation to do it. In other words, if someone has the ability to do something good or moral, then they ought to do it

The OpenAI chatbot gave a completely incorrect answer to this query, because Kant explicitly said that ought implies can (Kohl Citation 2015 ). The converse of ought implies can, proposed by the OpenAI chatbot, could lead to disastrous outcomes. Just because I can cheat on an exam, steal money, or kill someone, does not mean that I should do these things.

Overall, some ethicists and researchers believe that there should be upper limits on the risks that healthy adults can be exposed to in research that does not provide them a direct medical benefit because they believe that these individuals should not be subjected to unnecessary or excessive risks without their informed consent

The problem with this answer is not that it is incorrect but that it is irrelevant to the main issue, i.e., whether there should be ethical limits to risks that healthy, freely consenting volunteers can be exposed to in research. Some have argued that limits on risks can be justified by appealing to strong paternalism or the need to safeguard public trust in research (Resnik Citation 2012 ).

NLP systems raise some very interesting philosophical problems: Are they intelligent, and what does this mean in terms of human intelligence? Can they think? Do they have moral agency? Furthermore, NLP systems might help researchers in rewriting manuscripts, which would be especially useful for non-native (English) speakers. However, these uses of NLP would challenge our current understanding of originality and/or the author’s intellectual contribution to the task of writing. These are important questions for philosophers, computer scientists, and sociologists of science to ponder, but we will not address them here. Our concerns in this editorial are more practical.

First, using NLP systems raises issues related to accuracy, bias, relevance, and reasoning. As illustrated by the examples described above, these systems are impressive but can still make glaring mistakes (Heaven Citation 2022 ). Galactica developers warn that their language models can “Hallucinate,” “are Frequency-Biased” and “are often Confident But Wrong” (Galactica Citation 2022 ; Heaven Citation 2022 ). These flaws could be due to the fact that NLP systems only deal with statistical relationships among words and not relationships between language and the external world, which can lead them to make errors related to facts and commonsense reasoning (AI Perspectives Citation 2020 ). Another well-known problem with many AI/ML systems, including NLP systems, is the potential for bias, because AI systems will reflect biases in the data they are trained on (Lexalytics Citation 2022 ). For example, AI systems trained on data that includes racial, gender, or other biases will generate outputs that reproduce or even amplify those biases. NLP systems are also not very good at solving some mathematics problems (Lametti Citation 2022 ) or evaluating text for relevance and coherence, and they may inadvertently plagiarize (AI Content Dojo Citation 2021 ; Venture Beat Citation 2021 ).

While NLP systems are likely to become better at minimizing bias, doing math, making relevant connections between concepts, and avoiding plagiarism, they are likely to continue to make factual and commonsense reasoning mistakes because they do not (yet) have the type of cognition or perception needed to understand language and its relationship to the external physical, biological, and social world. NLP systems can perform well when working with text already created or curated by humans, but can perform (dangerously) poorly when they lack human-generated data related to a topic and try to piece together text from different sources. Thus, a ny section of a manuscript written by an NLP system should be checked by a domain expert for accuracy, bias, relevance, and reasoning.

Second, use of NLP systems raises issues of accountability. If a section of a manuscript written by an NLP system contains errors or biases, coauthors need to be held accountable for its accuracy, cogency, and integrity. While it is tempting to assign blame to the NLP systems and/or their developers for textual inaccuracies and biases, we believe that authors are ultimately responsible for the text generated by NLP systems and must be held accountable for inaccuracies, fallacies, or any other problems in manuscripts. We take this position because 1) NLP systems respond to prompts provided by researchers and do not proactively generate text; 2) authors can juxtapose text generated by an NLP system with other text (e.g., their own writing) or simply revise or paraphrase the generated text; and 3) authors will take credit for the text in any case. Researchers who use these NLP systems to write text for their manuscripts must therefore check the text for factual and citation accuracy; bias; mathematical, logical, and commonsense reasoning; relevance; and originality. If NLP systems write in English and authors have limited English proficiency, someone who is fluent in English must help them spot mistakes. If an NLP system makes a mistake (of omission or commission), authors need to take precautionary measures to correct it before it is published. Reviewers and editors can and should help out with catching mistakes, but they often do not have the time or resources to check every claim made in a manuscript.

Third, use of NLP systems raises issues of transparency in relation to requirements for authorship credit and contributions. Since participation in the writing process is a requirement for becoming an author according to guidelines adopted by most journals (Resnik et al. Citation 2016 ), and widely used contributor roles taxonomies (e.g., CRediT) make clear distinctions between writing the first draft and revising it (Hosseini et al. Citation 2022 ), use of NLP systems should be acknowledged in the text (e.g., methods section) and mentioned in the references section. Because NLP systems may be used in ways that may not be obvious to the reader, researchers should disclose their use of such systems and indicate which parts of the text were written or co-written by an NLP system . The issue here is similar to the ghost writing/contribution problem in scientific publications, except that we are not (yet) ready to say that AIs should be listed as authors on manuscripts when they make substantial contributions. Even so, transparency requires that contributions by NLP systems should be specifically disclosed so that the reader has an accurate understanding of the writing of the paper.

Fourth, use of NLP systems raises issues of data integrity for research that involves the analysis of text, such as surveys, interviews, or focus groups. It is possible to use NLP systems to fabricate transcripts of interviews or answers to open-ended questions. While it has always been possible for researchers to fabricate or falsify text, NLP systems make it much easier to do this, because they can generate narratives quickly from a few simple prompts. Since we trust that readers of Accountability in Research (AiR) understand that any form of data fabrication or falsification is unethical and is prohibited by the journal, we see no need to issue a separate policy on data fabrication or falsification related to the use of AI to write text, but we would still like to call attention to this issue and stress that researchers should not use NLP systems to fabricate empirical data or falsify existing data.

Fifth, ethical issues are not restricted to NLP-generated text only. It is possible, even likely, that researchers may employ these systems to generate an initial literature survey, find references, or synthesize ideas related to their work (e.g., https://elicit.org/ ), and then revise these suggestions to disguise their use (thereby making the human input look more impressive) and to prevent them from being identified by systems that detect NLP-generated content. But just as plagiarism can involve the misappropriation or theft of words or ideas , NLP-generated ideas may also affect the integrity of publications. When NLP assistance has impacted the content of a publication (even in the absence of direct use of NLP-generated text), this should be disclosed.

Finally, the issues discussed here go far beyond the use of AI to write text and impact research more generally. For a couple of decades now, researchers have used statistics programs, such as SPSS, to analyze data, and graphics programs, such as Photoshop, to process digital images. Ethical problems related to the misuse of statistics programs and digital image manipulation are well-known and have unfortunately been the subject of numerous research misconduct investigations (Gardenier and Resnik Citation 2002 ; Rossner and Yamada Citation 2004 ; Cromey Citation 2013 ; Shamoo and Resnik Citation 2022 ). Many biomedical journals have developed guidelines for using computer programs to process digital images (see Cell Press Citation 2022 ) and the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors ( Citation 2023 ) recommends that authors disclose the use of statistical software. We think that all uses of computer programs that substantially impact the content of the manuscript should be disclosed, but we will limit our focus here to uses of programs for writing or editing text.

In light of the rapidly-evolving nature of NLPs and ethical concerns with its use in research, the Editors of Accountability in Research are planning to adopt a policy on the inclusion of text and ideas generated by such systems in submissions to the Journal. The general goals of the policy will be, at a minimum, to ensure transparency and accountability related to use of these systems, while also being practical and straightforward. A draft of such a policy, and an invitation for submissions about this draft policy and these systems in general appear below.

All authors submitting manuscripts to Accountability in Research must disclose and describe the use of any NLP systems in writing the manuscript text or generating ideas used in the text and accept full responsibility for the text’s factual and citation accuracy; mathematical, logical, and commonsense reasoning; and originality.

“NLP systems” are those that generate new content. For example, software that checks for spelling or offers synonyms or grammar suggestions does not generate new content per se, but NLP systems that develop new phrases, sentences, paragraphs, or citations related to specific contexts can influence the meaning, accuracy, or originality of the text, and should be disclosed.

Disclosures can be made in the methods section AND among the references, as appropriate. Authors should specify: 1) who used the system, 2) the time and date of the use , 3) the prompt(s) used to generate the text , 4) the sections(s) containing the text ; and/or 5) ideas in the paper resulting from NLP use. Additionally, the text generated by NLP systems should be submitted as supplementary material. While this topic is a moving target and it may not be possible to anticipate all possible violations, an example of such a disclosure in the methods section could be: “In writing this manuscript, M.H. used OpenAI Chatbot on 9th of December 2022 at 1:21pm CST. The following prompt was used to write the introduction section: ‘Write a 300 word piece about the difference between research ethics and research integrity.’ The generated text was copied verbatim and is submitted as supplementary material.”

Accountability in Research is issuing a call for submissions focusing on the intersection of ethics, research integrity and policy related to NLP systems. We also invite commentary, exploration, and suggestions for improvements to our own policy draft above.

We encourage the editors of other journals to consider adopting policies on the use of AI in research, given the rapid and unpredictable advances in this technology. In the future, use of AI in research may raise issues of authorship, but that day has not yet arrived because today’s computing systems do not have the type of cognition, perception, agency, and awareness to be recognized as persons with authorship rights and responsibilities.

Using artificial intelligence (ai) tools in research.

The University of Iowa recognizes the rapidly evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its potential to advance knowledge, research, and scholarly work. AI tools can save researchers time and resources, enable them to tackle more complex problems, and enhance the quality of their work. However, it's essential to use AI responsibly, understand its limitations, be aware of the UI policies and guidance that apply to AI tools, and ensure that human expertise remains central to the research process. 

The technology continues to advance and as such, remains an evolving discussion across the University of Iowa and requires diligence in staying up-to-date.  Several departments have provided additional guidance on using AI tools and links can be found below:

The  Office of the Provost  and the Office of Teaching and Learning Technology  have provided guidance about using AI tools as part of teaching and classroom activities.

In addition, the Information Security and Policy Office has provided guidance on using AI tools as it relates to data security and privacy as well as policies surrounding what to do if you need to implement, purchase, or license an AI tool.

Below, you will find information about using AI tools throughout the research lifecycle.  If you have additional questions regarding how to use AI tools in research, please email your questions to [email protected]

What tools are considered "AI tools"?

Some examples of AI tools include the following (not an exhaustive list):

Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT , Google Gemini (Bard), & Bing AI Chat - These AI tools can answer questions, generate content, translate language, etc.

DALL-E  - DALL-E can generate images from textual descriptions. 

Otter.ai  - Otter.ai is an AI-driven transcription and note-taking tool. Please see this article by the UI Security Office as this is a prohibited technology.

Grammarly  - Grammarly is an AI-powered writing assistant. Please see this article by the UI Security Office as this is a prohibited technology.

What kind of data can I use with AI tools?

The University of Iowa has a contract in place with  UI Microsoft Copilot , but does not have a contract or agreement with any other externally-sourced AI tools or services. This means that standard UI security, privacy, and compliance provisions are not in place when using these technologies. As such, do not place UI data (University Internal, Restricted, or Critical)  into any externally sourced AI tool or service.  UI Microsoft Copilot is currently approved for Public and University/Internal data.  Please email [email protected] if you have a need to use Copilot with higher data classifications. 

Once data is placed into AI tools, the data becomes available to the public and open source.  This occurs, for example, with ChatGPT, Gemini (Bard), Bing or GPT as well as with prompts to generative image processors such as DALL-E.  Additionally, the data may be subject to other third-party terms and conditions. 

How can I use AI tools in my research?

Generating Research Ideas  - AI tools can help generate ideas by providing you with a list of related keywords or phrases that you can use to narrow down your research focus.

Finding Relevant Information  - AI tools can generate a list of articles, papers, and other sources that might be relevant to your research.

Generating Titles   and Summaries  - AI tools can help generate titles or short summaries for your research writing.

Generating Content - AI tools can generate several paragraphs about your research topic that you can use as inspiration for your own content.

In terms of research, what limitations should I be aware of when using AI tools?

Bias and Discrimination: AI tools can inherit biases. This bias can perpetuate stereotypes and discrimination in research outcomes. It is important to validate content using reliable resources.

Plagiarism:  Content generated from AI often paraphrases from other sources.  This might raise concerns regarding plagiarism and intellectual property rights. Many Federal agencies have tools to detect AI-generated content.  Be aware of these tools and their potential impact on your research and research writings. 

Data Privacy and Legal Issues:   The UI prohibits the use of AI tools with University/Internal, Restricted, and Critical data types. Once the data is placed into AI tools, the data becomes available to the public and open source. This would likely have legal consequences should a data breach occur.  Please refer to the IT Security and Policy Office's AI guidance .

Data Misinformation: AI tools can generate data that is misinformed or inaccurate.  It is extremely important to cross-reference generated content with reliable sources.

What questions should I ask a Sponsor or collaborator about their use of AI tools?

When working with Sponsors, vendors, or collaborators inquire about their practices of using AI.   Additional terms and conditions may need to be included in a research agreement/contract to ensure responsible and ethical use of AI tools by collaborating organizations. Please consult with the Division of Sponsored Programs prior to entering into any contract and with help in negotiating contract terms.

What is the difference between Machine Learning research and using AI tools for research?

Machine Learning Research: Machine learning research involves the study and development of new algorithms, models, and techniques in the field of machine learning. Researchers in this domain focus on advancing the theoretical understanding of machine learning, proposing novel algorithms, conducting experiments to evaluate their performance, and publishing their findings in academic journals and conferences. The primary goal is to push the boundaries of what is possible in machine learning and contribute to the theoretical foundation of the field. Some common Machine Learning frameworks include TensorFlow and PyTorch, for example.

Using AI Tools for Research: This refers to the application of existing AI and machine learning tools and techniques to solve specific research problems in various domains. Researchers use AI tools as tools of analysis, prediction, automation, or optimization to address their research questions. The primary goal here is to leverage AI's capabilities to advance research in other fields, such as biology, economics, astronomy, or social sciences. Some of these tools might include ChatGPT and DALL-E, for example.

What if I want to use an AI tool with my research data? What steps should I take?

The University of Iowa has a contract in place with  UI Microsoft Copilot , but does not have a contract or agreement with any other AI tools or services. This means that standard UI security, privacy, and compliance provisions are not in place when using technologies, other than Copilot. As with any other IT service or product with no university contract or agreement, AI tools should only be used with institutional data classified as PUBLIC (Low Sensitivity).  See the UI Data Classification Levels for descriptions and examples of each data classification. If you want to use an AI tool with University/Internal, Restricted, or Critical data, the AI tool is subject to applicable university policies and standards prior to using it, including the  Technology and Security Review processes .

UI Microsoft Copilot is currently approved for Public and University/Internal data.  Please email [email protected] if you have a need to use Copilot with higher data classifications.

What about AI transcription services?

Some externally sourced transcription services utilize AI. As with all third-party software or services, Technology and Security reviews are required if you intend to use UI data with that software or service. If the software or service you want to use is not listed in the Technology Review and/or the  Security Assessed Software List , you must submit Technology and Security Reviews prior to using it. 

Want to see an AI tool in action?

We asked ChatGPT to write a 150-word abstract about the relationship between AI trends and research use.  As mentioned in previous questions above, it is important to be aware of AI's limitations before using generated content. Here is what it wrote:

"Title: Exploring the Dynamic Interplay Between AI Trends and Research Utilization

This research abstract delves into the intricate relationship between emerging Artificial Intelligence (AI) trends and their impact on the utilization of research findings. In the ever-evolving landscape of AI, staying abreast of the latest trends is crucial for maintaining competitiveness and relevance. This study seeks to elucidate how the rapid progression of AI technologies influences the utilization of research across various domains.

We employ a multi-disciplinary approach, drawing from fields such as computer science, social sciences, and economics, to examine the mechanisms through which AI trends shape research adoption. Our research takes into account factors such as the accessibility of AI tools, the adaptability of research methodologies, and the implications of AI-generated insights for decision-makers.

By analyzing case studies, survey data, and expert interviews, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the synergistic interplay between AI trends and research utilization. Our findings will inform stakeholders in academia, industry, and policy-making about the dynamic nature of AI's influence on knowledge dissemination and application, paving the way for more informed strategies in an increasingly AI-driven world."

Do AI models produce more original ideas than researchers?

• Gemma Conroy

You can also search for this author in PubMed   Google Scholar

Researchers built an artificial intelligence tool that came up with 4000 novel research ideas in a matter of hours. Credit: Malte Mueller/Getty

An ideas generator powered by artificial intelligence (AI) came up with more original research ideas than did 50 scientists working independently, according to a preprint posted on arXiv this month 1 .

The human and AI-generated ideas were evaluated by reviewers, who were not told who or what had created each idea. The reviewers scored AI-generated concepts as more exciting than those written by humans, although the AI’s suggestions scored slightly lower on feasibility.

But scientists note the study, which has not been peer-reviewed, has limitations. It focused on one area of research and required human participants to come up with ideas on the fly, which probably hindered their ability to produce their best concepts.

AI in science

There are burgeoning efforts to explore how LLMs can be used to automate research tasks, including writing papers , generating code and searching literature . But it’s been difficult to assess whether these AI tools can generate fresh research angles at a level similar to that of humans. That’s because evaluating ideas is highly subjective and requires gathering researchers who have the expertise to assess them carefully, says study co-author, Chenglei Si. “The best way for us to contextualise such capabilities is to have a head-to-head comparison,” says Si, a computer scientist at Stanford University in California.

The year-long project is one of the biggest efforts to assess whether large language models (LLMs) — the technology underlying tools such as ChatGPT — can produce innovative research ideas, says Tom Hope, a computer scientist at the Allen Institute for AI in Jerusalem. “More work like this needs to be done,” he says.

The team recruited more than 100 researchers in natural language processing — a branch of computer science that focuses on communication between AI and humans. Forty-nine participants were tasked with developing and writing ideas, based on one of seven topics, within ten days. As an incentive, the researchers paid the participants US$300 for each idea, with a $1,000 bonus for the five top-scoring ideas.

Meanwhile, the researchers built an idea generator using Claude 3.5, an LLM developed by Anthropic in San Francisco, California. The researchers prompted their AI tool to find papers relevant to the seven research topics using Semantic Scholar, an AI-powered literature-search engine. On the basis of these papers, the researchers then prompted their AI agent to generate 4,000 ideas on each research topic and instructed it to rank the most original ones.

Human reviewers

Next, the researchers randomly assigned the human- and AI-generated ideas to 79 reviewers, who scored each idea on its novelty, excitement, feasibility and expected effectiveness. To ensure that the ideas’ creators remained unknown to the reviewers, the researchers used another LLM to edit both types of text to standardize the writing style and tone without changing the ideas themselves.

On average, the reviewers scored the AI-generated ideas as more original and exciting than those written by human participants. However, when the team took a closer look at the 4,000 LLM-produced ideas, they found only around 200 that were truly unique, suggesting that the AI became less original as it churned out ideas.

When Si surveyed the participants, most admitted that their submitted ideas were average compared with those they had produced in the past.

The results suggest that LLMs might be able to produce ideas that are slightly more original than those in the existing literature, says Cong Lu, a machine-learning researcher at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. But whether they can beat the most groundbreaking human ideas is an open question.

Another limitation is that the study compared written ideas that had been edited by an LLM, which altered the language and length of the submissions, says Jevin West, a computational social scientist at the University of Washington in Seattle. Such changes could have subtly influenced how reviewers perceived novelty, he says. West adds that pitting researchers against an LLM that can generate thousands of ideas in hours might not make for a totally fair comparison. “You have to compare apples to apples,” he says.

Si and his colleagues are planning to compare AI-generated ideas with leading conference papers to gain a better understanding of how LLMs stack up against human creativity. “We are trying to push the community to think harder about how the future should look when AI can take on a more active role in the research process,” he says.

Improving yolov7 for large target classroom behavior recognition of teachers in smart classroom scenarios, 1. introduction.

• Aimed at the current problem of the lack of a teacher classroom behavior dataset, we collected a substantial amount of video data and, after a series of data processing and manual annotation steps such as cropping, filtering, and rescaling, constructed a teacher behavior dataset (TCBDS) in an actual classroom environment, which supports the research of teacher behavior recognition. Relevant experiments were carried out on the current mainstream models, and better experimental results were obtained with high practical application value.
• In this paper, we present a large target detection model based on YOLOv7+P6. We observed and analyzed the classroom data, and we found that the teacher’s single appearance makes the target object occupy a larger proportion of the image. To increase the model’s detection accuracy, we designed a large target detection layer in the original backbone model, a low-resolution feature layer with a much larger receptive field.
• This paper presents an improved model based on YOLOv7+EMA. To be able to effectively recognize teachers’ similar behaviors in classroom scenarios, the EMA attention module is added at the end of the original YOLOv7 backbone structure. This enables the model to focus more on the local feature information during the feature extraction process, making it more accurate in recognizing similar behaviors between classes.
• This paper presents an improved model of YOLOv7+Inner_MPDIoU. Considering that CIoU has some limitations in exceptional cases, we combined the Inner_IoU idea and the MPDIoU loss principle, proposing the Inner_MPDIoU loss function. This function addresses the issue that CIoU cannot be further optimized when the real and predicted boxes have an equal aspect ratio. The experimental findings of the TCBDS dataset indicate that the method can increase recognition accuracy while accelerating model convergence.
