Questions or considerations about tools: tools.ub@unibe.ch.
AI Tools
AI Tools: Position Statement Medical Library
At the Medical Library, we value ethical conduct, research integrity, critical thinking, transparency, high-quality reproducible science, and trustworthy information. Based on these values, our position on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in the production of useful scientific knowledge is that researchers must:
- Have a deep understanding of the limitations and biases of the tool(s) that they intend to use.
- Fact-check the data and information provided by the tool(s) before using it for any scientific purpose. Researchers must take full responsibility for the integrity of everything that they produce.
- Be careful about what information they share with the tool(s). Researchers must not share confidential information, including unpublished hypotheses and results, if the AI developer has access to this data.
- Document details of usage: purpose of use, software details, input(s), date and time of use, user details, raw output(s), etc.
- Think carefully about which tool(s) they want to use and why. Researchers must not use AI for AI’s sake. We recommend critically evaluating a few tools using clearly defined criteria that focus on quality, trustworthiness, and AI developer’s ethics, before deciding on which tool(s) to use. Researchers must re-evaluate their choices and outputs regularly because algorithms change.
- Assess the personal limitations and biases that could impede the objective evaluation of the outputs of the tool(s). Researchers should seek advice and training from experienced and knowledgeable users on how to use the tool(s) safely and effectively.
- Ensure that AI usage does not replace the constant improvement of one’s scientific skills, such as critical thinking, information assimilation leading to original thought, effective communication, etc.
- Disclose the use of tool(s) clearly and fully when sharing scientific information, in line with ethical and institutional guidelines.
If you need any support in the use of AI tools for your scientific literature search or academic writing feel free to contact us: support_med.ub@unibe.ch
ChatGPT
ChatGPT (GPT-3)
Modality of acess
paid/free
Purpose
ChatGPT-3 was designed to handle a wide range of conversational and text-based tasks, including programming, answering questions, and generating text.
Advantages
You can use ChatGPT-3 to quickly summarize and paraphrase text or generate code across multiple programming languages. ChatGPT-3 allows for iterative improvements in prompts and outputs. ChatGPT-3 is user-friendly, and it is easy to initiate a chat with a single sentence.
Limitations
Though chatting with ChatGPT-3 may feel similar to chatting with a person, ChatGPT-3 does not understand your ideas or concepts. Its knowledge also does not extend beyond January 2022. ChatGPT-3 may fabricate (“hallucinate”) content, summarize incorrectly, misinterpret nuance. It may invent index terms, suggest incorrect syntax in search strategies, and is unreliable when supplying references. Finally, information shared with ChatGPT-3 is not confidential since ChatGPT-3 also trains on data provided by users. Therefore personal information can be part of ChatGPT-3 outcomes. Even ChatGP3 policies advises users against sharing sensitive data with the system.
Elicit
Elicit AI Assistant Tool
Modality of access
paid/free
Purpose
Its primary purpose is to automate some parts of the literature review workflow. One of the strongly supported steps is idea generation by retrieving papers and assisting the selection of key papers.
Advantages
Elicit can help you identify papers on a topic, without overwhelming you with hundreds of results. You can use Elicit to explore existing research, which can help you elucidate and define your topic. Elicit can help you identify key papers and then help you use them to find similar literature. You can save and export your search results.
Limitations
Elicit does not recognize advanced search syntax (e.g, truncation); instead, it process research question or main concepts written in natural language. You cannot conduct a full systematic/scoping review project within the Elicit environment.
Rayyan
Rayyan.ai Screening Tool
Modality of access
paid/free
Purpose
It is intended to help you screen titles and abstracts faster.
Advantages
The free version will de-duplicate references; you can specify inclusion and exclusion criteria and collaborate with up to 3 blinded reviewerse. The free version also includes AI-based features, e.g., sorting by best matching. If you subscribe to the paid version you can use it on mobile devices.
Limitations
The interface is outdated and, in the free version, it is hard to assign subgroups of articles to different coauthors for screening.
ASReview
ASReview Screening Tool
Modality of access
free
Purpose
ASReview helps you screen titles and abstracts faster.
Advantages
ASReview is open source, transparent, and educational. It utilizes active learning to identify relevant papers. The process starts with an initial users selection of relevant papers, which will be used by the system to sort articles based on relevance.
Limitations
Requires some expertise with Python to install it. Each user must customize their screening process to suit their needs.
Research Rabbit
Research Rabbit Topic Exploration
https://www.researchrabbit.ai/
Modality of access
free
Purpose
You can use Research Rabbit to identify articles and their authors, track publications, and generate visual representations of research domains.
Advantages
Research Rabbit facilitates forward and backwards citation searching and explores connections between the papers you have already identified.
Limitations
Because Research Rabbit’s filters and options are limited, you cannot filter your results by, e.g., date of publication or publication type. Forward citation results are not reliable and papers that have cited your paper of interest may be missing from the list.
Consensus
Consensus Topic Exploration
Modality of access
paid/free
Purpose
You can use Consensus to identify articles and their authors, track publications, and generate visual representations of research domains.
Advantages
Consensus can be used for a naive search while you are still formulating or finalizing your research topic. You can use it to identify scientific sources without setting up a search strategy. You can query Consensus in natural language and it will identify research papers related to the query you entered.
Limitations
You can use Consensus for a superficial exploration of your research question, and it will supply you with some key papers, but you cannot conduct a comprehensive search in the Consensus environment.
Academic Writing Tools
Academic Writing Tools
AI-based writing tools can be categorised based on what they do, for example, generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT) generate text, paraphraser AI tools (such as Writefull) rewrite text. We have listed these categories below, along with some of the risks of using these tools indiscriminately and without appropriate training. While AI tools can help produce text quickly, this text is generic, ineffectively structured, and, in many instances, factually incorrect. The quality of the output depends more on the user’s experience, knowledge, and training than on the tool’s functionality. Therefore, we cannot recommend any one tool in any of the categories as the best of its class.
We strongly advise academic writers, especially new writers and those with less experience, to use AI tools cautiously and in moderation. Writing well is hard because writing is intertwined with thinking. Both our writing and thinking become clearer as we work on making our sentences more effective and our paragraphs more coherent. We urge all writers to make the effort to read a lot and to write a lot to improve their ability to synthesize evidence, summarize it, and communicate it. We ask them to not fall into the trap of accepting AI-generated texts that simply “sound good.” We insist that they use AI tools only if they are certain of what high-quality academic writing should look like.
Category | Example(s) | Risk(s) from indiscriminate usage |
---|---|---|
Translator tools |
DeepL Write |
|
Generative tools |
ChatGPT, JenniAI |
|
Reader and summarizer tools |
Wordtune, Humata, SciSpace, Leminda |
|
Paraphraser tools |
Writefull, Ref-N-Write |
|
Academic editing tools |
