Audience: Vision scientists and researchers interested in utilizing AI tools in scientific writing.
Summary: Artificial intelligence tools, particularly large language models such as ChatGPT offer the potential to revolutionize our approach to scientific writing by performing time-consuming tasks that were previously only possible by humans such as summarizing literature, generating text or proof-reading. However, there are several technical and ethical considerations researchers need to consider when using AI for scientific writing. This workshop will provide researchers with information on the AI tools currently available for scientific writing, the ability for these tools to assist in complex writing such as systematic reviews, the ethical and authorship implications of AI-assisted scientific writing and the impact of AI on the peer-review process.
This webinar is hosted by ARVO's Publications Committee (PUB). A certificate of attendance will be available to attendees upon completion.
Organizers and moderators: Brian Vohnsen, MSc, PhD; Lisa Nivison-Smith, BSc (Hons), PhD.
