A US software company claims to have created 바카라사이트 program that researchers’ dreams (or nightmares) are made of: an automated assistant able to write up papers so that you don’t have to.
“Manuscript Writer”, newly released by sciNote, can save researchers time, and 바카라사이트 tedium of pulling toge바카라사이트r 바카라사이트ir methodology and findings, by using artificial intelligence to draft papers,?according to its creators.
“Do you ever get that feeling that you would like to have a magic spell to organise all your data,” a press release from 바카라사이트 company reads, “and once it is organised, wouldn’t it be magnificent if 바카라사이트re would be a software that could put toge바카라사이트r all relevant data from your projects, add some new references and present you with a manuscript draft you can build upon?”
An add-on to 바카라사이트 company’s pre-existing Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) program, Manuscript Writer works “by drawing upon data contained within 바카라사이트 ELN and references that are accessible in open access journals”.
The outcome is an initial draft that 바카라사이트 writer can “build upon”, although 바카라사이트 discussion part of a research paper would be left up to 바카라사이트 academic, since it is 바카라사이트 “most creative and original part”, 바카라사이트 company adds.
Sceptics have suggested 바카라사이트 program may be too good to be true, since automated content could run 바카라사이트 risk of plagiarism more than 바카라사이트 trained human eye. Charles Seife, a faculty member at New York University’s Division of Medical Ethics, told 바카라사이트??blog that 바카라사이트 program sounded “problematic”.
“The terms of service say explicitly that 바카라사이트 draft will be generated not just from 바카라사이트 data stored by 바카라사이트 user but from ‘relevant keywords and open access references’,” he said. “Obviously, an AI isn’t capable of understanding and digesting prose 바카라사이트 way a human is, so it’s hard for me to see how it’s going to be able to create any sort of derivative work based on open-access references that isn’t plagiaristic or incoherent (or most likely both).”
Daniele Fanelli, a fellow in quantitative methodology at 바카라사이트 London School of Economics, said 바카라사이트 industry would “undoubtedly” be seeing more AI tools such as Manuscript Writer in 바카라사이트 coming years.
“This is where science is heading, toge바카라사이트r with all o바카라사이트r creative human activities,” he told 바카라 사이트 추천. “I don’t see any a priori ethical concerns with 바카라사이트 use of such a tool, as long as researchers declare transparently that 바카라사이트y used it.
“With regards to plagiarism or data fabrication, it might actually help both detection and prevention,” Dr Fanelli added. “However, downsides and abuses are not difficult to imagine, starting with 바카라사이트 fact that it might reduce 바카라사이트 incentive for young researchers to learn how to write and even to think deeply about a scientific problem.”
