Artificial Intelligence
Tool AI Selected according to the various stages of academic research:
In recent years, we have seen the development of various AI tools integrated into all stages of academic research information retrieval. This includes everything from formulating research questions and reviewing existing literature, to locating sources, comparing articles, and finally, analyzing, summarizing, and concluding them. Judicious use of these tools throughout the different work stages, including verifying results, can significantly enhance and streamline our ability to work with complex texts from diverse types and sources. It also allows us to integrate them into research effectively, relying on natural language communication and minimizing time spent.
Below is a partial list of all artificial intelligence (AI) tools, sorted by various research stages. This list does not constitute a recommendation for using any AI tools and is supplementary to the general policy detailed in the regulations.
