Talk Emerging Tools and Technologies: AI, Platforms, and Beyond Parallel session

Speaker

Montserrat Capellas Espuny

Description

Science writers today face an overwhelming amount of available information, pressure for speed and audiences that expect both accuracy and readability. New AI-powered tools, beyond ChatGPT, can facilitate the job of journalists and communicators, when used properly.

This talk will explore how science writers can use tools such as Paperguide, Perplexity or Elicit to work smarter. Whilst AI will not replace writers, these rapidly evolving sytems can assist in researching background information, seeking literature in the same field or even fact checking. This results in faster and more efficient workflows, but without losing creativity, accountability nor the human touch.

The presentation will include insights into which AI systems can be practically used to support science writers in the real world with real examples.
