I'm beginning to notice a number of answers on RG that look suspiciously like they've been generated by AI. The usefulness of posting such answers is not clear, since those seeking an answer to a question can themselves just use generative AI directly to ask their question instead of asking it on RG. Or maybe it's a step that should be taken before asking a question on RG in order to solicit other opinions. What does this bode for the future of Q&A on RG?
I don't have any experience with AI. I have attended webinars about its use but I haven't experienced it yet.
While AI can generate responses quickly, making information more accessible, the depth and quality of responses from experienced researchers and professionals often provide more nuanced and contextual insights. Human expertise remains invaluable. In my view, combining AI-generated content with human expertise can create a more powerful and effective environment.
This century is characterized by technological advancements, including generative AI, which is used for various purposes, from searching for information to obtaining advice or creating images. Like any other invention, AI has both positives and negatives, depending on how and by whom it is used. When it comes to AI-generated answers, careless usage can lead to serious issues in terms of academic honesty, integrity, copyright violations, and ethical concerns. AI generates responses by drawing on internet databases, including research papers and other scientific materials and findings. If used without proper citation of the referenced material, there is a high risk of plagiarism. In academic environments, one of the key values is academic honesty, which reflects our true professional identity, original (not AI-generated) ideas, and strong moral values. In summary, AI can be used for various purposes as long as it respects the boundaries of academic honesty, professional integrity, copyright considerations, and ethical standards.
