ACS Nano 2023, 17, 5, 4091–4093 Best Practices for Using AI When Writing Scientific Manuscripts Caution, Care, and Consideration: Creative Science Depends on It. February 27, 2023 https://doi.org/10.1021/acsnano.3c01544 – “Science is communicated through language. The media of language in science is multimodal, ranging from lecturing in classrooms, to informal daily discussions among scientists, to prepared talks at conferences, and, finally, to the pinnacle of science communication, the formal peer-reviewed publication. The arrival of language tools driven by artificial intelligence (AI), like ChatGPT, has generated an explosion of interest globally. ChatGPT has set the record for the fastest growing user base of any application in history, with over 100 million active users in just two months, as of the end of January 2023. ChatGPT is merely the first of many AI-based language tools, with announcements of more either in preparation or soon to be launched. Many in scientific research and universities around the world have raised concerns of ChatGPT‘s potential to transform scientific communication before we have had time to consider the ramifications of such a tool or verified that the text it generates is factually correct. The human-like quality of the text structure produced by ChatGPT can deceive readers into believing it is of human origin. It is now apparent, however, that the generated text might be fraught with errors, can be shallow and superficial, and can generate false journal references and inferences. More importantly, ChatGPT sometimes makes connections that are nonsensical and false.”
