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 Researchers must not share confidential information, including unpublished hypotheses and results, if the AI developer has access to this data.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

ChatGPT (GPT-3)
ChatGPT is a voice and text-based chatbot provided by OpenAI. Based on a large language model (LLM), the generative artificial intelligence produces human-like answers to questions about texts or images. The chatbot masters a variety of language-based tasks such as writing, rewriting, translating or rephrasing texts. Its output needs to be fact-checked by users, and it is not recommended to share sensitive data with the system.
Elicit
Elicit

Elicit offers an efficient way to identify papers, explore existing research, and obtain an overview of a topic and key concepts. The tool automates phases of the literature review process, such as finding relevant papers, extracting data, and exporting results. The notebook feature allows for tracking and optimising research workflows such as: finding papers, PDF upload, data extraction, and concept mapping across papers. Results can be sorted by most/least cited, relevancy, recency, and filtered by publication dates, journal quality, study types, etc. Narrative summaries are offered with the top 4 (free Elicit Basic) or top 8 (paid Elicit Plus, Elicit Pro) references. Additional features such as "accuracy mode," "Add a step," or "Ask a new question" help improve results. Papers can be extracted using the tool's suggested columns or by user-defined queries of the text. Users can export search results into RIS, BiB, CSV file (Elicit Plus, Elicit Pro). Presently, Elicit may not offer suitable results for all disciplines/fields of study. The semantic search does not recognise advanced search syntax (e.g., wildcards, truncation).
Rayyan
Rayyan

Rayyan.ai Screening Tool
Rayyan helps to screen titles and abstracts faster during a systematic review. The free version removes duplicate titles. Inclusion and exclusion criteria can be defined and it is possible to work with up to 3 anonymised reviewers. The free version also includes AI-based functions, e.g. sorting by the most relevant titles. The paid version can be used on mobile devices. Disadvantages are the outdated user interface and that it is difficult to assign subgroups of articles to different reviewers for screening in the free version.
ASReview
ASReview

ASReview Screening Tool
ASReview helps you screen titles and abstracts faster. ASReview is an open source, transparent, and educational tool. It learns to identify relevant papers during the screening process. The process starts with an initial selection of relevant papers submitted by the reviewers, which are used by the system to sort articles by relevance. Some knowledge of Python is required to install ASReview. Each user must customize their screening process to suit their needs.
ResearchRabbit
ResearchRabbit

ResearchRabbit Topic Exploration
ResearchRabbit is a free research tool. It allows you to find publications and visualise their connections in a field of study. ResearchRabbit facilitates forward and backward searches for citations and explores connections between publications that have already been identified. ResearchRabbit's filters and options are limited, and results cannot be filtered by date or type of publication. Forward citation results are not always reliable, i.e. not all publications citing a specific title will necessarily be found.
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 |
