Generative AI Tools for Research
This series of workshop videos discuss generative artificial intelligence in the research process, for students, instructors and researchers.
Session Description
This workshop will explore the emerging role of generative AI tools in identifying relevant literature for academic projects. Participants will gain insights into various AI powered platforms designed to support research and academic writing and learn to identify the appropriate tools to fit their needs.
This session will cover:
- Identifying and evaluating generative AI tools relevant to literature searching and understanding how to incorporate them into the research process
- Selecting appropriate tools for research needs
- Critically assessing the limitations and ethical implications of AI-powered tools in academic work
For more workshops visit the Centre for Artificial Intelligence, Ethics, Literacy and Integrity (CAIELI) at the University of Calgary.
