My wife wrote her paper during 'physical' library research times decades ago, pouring over hardcopy materials. When I showed her Google Scholar some years back while doing my MBA, she pooh-poohed it and said "Where's the academic rigour?!?!". Now doing my DBA, I dare not show her research using AI.... ๐คฃ
I had it analyze a music teacherโs YouTube playlist of 30 videos, break down every homework lesson given in each video and organized into a cohesive curriculum on music theory. Iโve watched the series multiple times already but wanted to create an organized regiment from it. It was 100% accurate
I was excited too at first but when you read more in detail, we can find the limitations. It overquoted a source too much in my experience, didn't synthesize enough, and occassionally hallucinated. But it really helps by discovering papers. So, treat it more like a search engine and something to help you get over the writer's block.
I've already got the research button as a plus user.
I attended a workshop for PhD candidates on experiences with AI. I raised the question about academic integrity to to academics there- just looking for a perspective - and the concensus was that using the tools as a 'pseudo-librarian', looking for sources, and discussions with peers for exploring ideas was not a problem. What you DO with the generative text reply is the issue....& these days one has to acknowledge the use of AI ( what and how) at thesis submission. Good to see Uni's moving with the times...interestingly - no academic wants to admit that they use AI๐๐๐๐
The deep research tool has been immensely helpful for us when compiling research to then write a book with!
"to a T" =The phrase dates back to at least the late 17th century. It is believed to derive from the earlier phrase "to a tittle," where "tittle" refers to a small mark or stroke in writing, such as the dot over the letter "i." This suggests precision and exactness, much like how "to a T" is used today. Over time, "to a tittle" was shortened to "to a T." Example: "She followed the recipe to a T, and the cake turned out perfect."
Deep Research results are astonishing. Using it with Claude to create diagrams and graphic is a perfect match
Uh, me envious of those doing their literature review now going forward - lots of smart tools. Lit review took countless painful weeks of serious material search and reading. With tools like Deep research, Cite, Litmaps, and many more, research has been made lots lots easier in terms of finding, organizing and crunching, and synthesizing resources. The new challenge now lies in mastering these tools in order to become more productive with them. Love it๐๐พ๐๐พ๐
The funny thing is 20-30 years ago paper would have 10-20 references and now I came across some paper with 350 references. The demand for depth and quality of material pushing limits of ChatGPT and Google scholar to the moon and back. Just did my MSc dissertation literature review with 80-90 references. Now working on methodology. P.S. there is a way to get academia based answer only you have to tweak your template - please use academia papers to answer this question only and provide full reference with the link (this is to avoid hallucination when chat make up articles out of the blue to please you)
If you're using this for a new subject, you've skipped all the actual learning you get from properly interacting with the texts you're reading. The purpose of producing a literature review isn't just the end product in itself - the purpose is learning the background of a subject and using the literature review to frame your thinking. If one takes this shortcut, you haven't actually learned anything
2:25 it cost you 200 dollars but now we can use it for free lmao
In my childhood major technological breakthroughs occurred once in 10 years, now it is happening every month!
It is easy to abuse this tech, but itโs very valuable in the right hands. For a first draft that is a great starting point!
We have 10 deep research queries/month in the Plus plan now. Pro users now have 120 instead of 100.
4:42 it's 'to the t'๐ love your videos
Andy, you can ask deep research to use in text referencing and to produce a full list of references. It is just amazing. You can also put in your style guide. Great video
The controversial part of it is keep academic integrity. As a scholar is difficult to โsellโ the idea you can use these type of AI technology and maintain academic integrity and avoid plagiarism. Universities do not want students to use them. However I think as long as you make an argument and explain how AI tools were used in your research. In other words be open in your research. You can save yourself from your integrity as an academic is not put in question. Basically you are not a โfraudโ
Have you seen the recent announcements from Google about their AI Co-Scientist? It "uses a coalition of specialized agents โ Generation, Reflection, Ranking, Evolution, Proximity and Meta-review" that battle each other in 'Ranking agent tournaments'. Sounds like Pokemon or Beyblades. The AI co-scientist then "parses the assigned goal into a research plan configuration, managed by a Supervisor agent".
