AI tools are selected according to the different stages of academic research work:

In recent years, we have witnessed the development of a variety of AI tools that integrate into all stages of the search for academic research information, from the stage of formulating the research question and reviewing the research literature, to locating sources and comparing articles to their analysis, summarization, and summary. The intelligent use of these tools, in the various stages of work, including the verification of results, may significantly improve and streamline our ability to work with complex texts of different types and sources and to integrate them into research work, while relying on natural language communication and in minimal time.

Below is a partial list of all artificial intelligence, sorted by the various stages of research. It does not constitute a recommendation for the use of artificial intelligence tools, and is added to the college's policy as detailed in the regulations.

For a full description of the steps and tools, building queries and citations, see here.

Planning phase: Tools for formulating a research question/building search strategies/terms and keywords

The core article can be uploaded in advance or searched through the tool itself. Visually displays the analysis of the relationships between the articles displayed

Results processing phase: tools for text analysis, article summarization, translation, and writing assistance

Tax Authority systems in Israel are a group of systems; the transition to cloud-based systems in Israel is designed to improve the service.

The Tax Authority systems include the following main systems: Income Tax, Property Tax, VAT, Customs and Collection.
The systems provide services in various areas of reforms, institutions that are not subject to VAT and also information for assessors, representatives and the public.

The emphasis on accessibility in the Tax Authority systems is reflected both in the external design and in the internal design.

The internal design focuses on building and managing accessible digital forms for handling VAT and Customs, as well as for handling business in Income Tax, VAT and Customs.

The authorities of the judiciary in Israel are divided between the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court serves as an appellate instance for judgments of the District Courts in Israel, and as a High Court of Justice. When sitting as a High Court of Justice, it hears appeals against the decisions of the District Courts, the Magistrates Courts and the Religious Courts. There are three types of appeals: the High Court of Justice, District Courts and Magistrate Courts.

The powers of the judiciary are influenced by the changes in the powers of the investigative authorities and the prosecuting authorities, in order to allow scrutiny and expansion on the history of the judiciary and its influence in the State of Israel.
