actually, Elsevier even allowed the use of AI in our journal writing. They only demand that we are the one that must be responsible for anything written by the AI, thus making us to thoroughly verify the data given by the AI. That’s it.

Here's how I use GPT for research so I always have the essence of a paper for quick reference: 1. I export my PDF to a .txt file, then run it through a "RecursiveSummarizer" with my API key. This is available on youtube - use it. 2. I do this once or twice depending on how concise I want the summary to be. 3. I then run the summary through ChatGPT, asking for concise bullet points. 4. I use a custom recursive quoting modification of the recursive summarizer script to pull out what GPT thinks are the most important quotes in a text. This also helps me read more quickly - I can quickly skim through whole articles with their most important quotes in minutes.

So ChatGPT extracted this key points of your video: 1. The speaker is impressed with what Chat GPT4 can do and thinks it's perfect for research. 2. Chat GPT4 can provide real references and links to papers in various fields, though not all links may work. 3. Chat GPT4 can analyze a large amount of text and create scaffolds for writing abstracts, presentations, and other research. 4. By analyzing conference presentations, Chat GPT4 can extract important information and turn it into useful outcomes.

Thank you again, Andy. Your videos allowed me to finish my thesis a year in advance

I find it helpful to tell it what I want and ask it to rephrase it as a more effective prompt. Then use the prompt to generate the desired response. I get much better results that way.

The ability to summarise is very attractive to my short attention span and the "use as many words as possible to make sure you know its important" style many like to use. I think most people like to learn but often just skip it all together because the process is often un enjoyable eg. reading a whole book for a week just to learn a couple of important things. Your average person is about to become a whole lot more knowledgeable about a whole lot more things.

I love seeing meaningful youtube content on ChatGPT prompting. I have three tips (and a comparison) to offer you @Andy that will help with the ideas you've expressed in this video: First, If you want to guardrail hallucinations, add the instruction "If you do not know the answer, do not speculate." Hallucinations are powerful for creative outcomes but dangerous for research outcomes. This instruction can be layered with many other instructions and appears non ambiguous in multiple context. This is not full proof, I'll admit, because the AI does not know the difference between an answer it tells itself and an answer you tell it, or an answer contained in its training data. But this will guardrail hallucination to a noticeable degree. Second, An extremely simple and concise reverse engineering prompt is: "Rewrite this as a prompt for an AI language model. Write it as an instruction to the model using the template: 'You are [role]. Your goal is [goal]. To achieve this goal, these are the rules: [rules]'" Third, There are multiple critical layers (prompts) you can pass the resulting prompt through to ensure that the prompt retains all critical information while simplifying and standardizing the prompt style so that it is clearly understandable by the AI language model. I'll let you iterate through that. It's a fun journey. Fourth, for comparison, I use "Read and acknowledge the following {text} then await further instructions. text = [text to read]". There are lots of tips around how to improve productivity through the use of punctuation and formatting of the input because of the way that the text is tokenized behind the scenes. It's fascinating stuff. Best wishes in the future of your channel.

i love how you still correct your typos 😍

ANDY, I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THE IMAGE ANALYSIS!!! I hope it comes super soon!

Hi Andy, Thank you for your videos and online material. MS Word is capable of extracting text from audio files and from dictation

I loved your video. Thank you! I am new to ChtGPT and want to play around with it. You gave me a good push!

Hi Andy! Really thanks a lot for the tips! I am learning a lot from your videos. Greetings from Brazil! 👏👏👏👏👏

you have helped it change my life.... ps it does decent recipes when given ingredients and a intention too

The million dollar question is if it can synthesize multiple articles into one paragraph

I LOVE your videos. Thank you so much!

Thank you for sharing valuable experience . It really helped me in my Phd journey ❤

You can also ask the chat interface of the new Bing (which has gpt 4 ) or Elicit for references from a natural language prompt.

Excellent video on Chat GPT usage and benefits ,Thanks

Such a good new!. Thanks for all the amazing content 🤓. Cheers from Bolivia.

I got such a kick out of you telling ChatGPT to read something and to tell you when it's done. 😂 It's instant. You could just say, "Create a scaffold abstract using the below abstracts as templates" and then copy and paste all of the abstracts in the same chat entry.

I was waiting this video!!

Another suggestion: how AI/chatGPT can help in a systematic review/meta-analysis

I'm binge-watching a lot your videos! They are very informative ! Keep doing the excelent work, Andy! Hugs from Brazil!!

Thanks Andy !

Not a PhD, but work in pharma, more specifically in validation and compliance. I'm very excited to explore how I can apply ChatGPT and other AI tools to my work. Most of my time is spent drafting risk assessments and protocols for very specific things. I still think it would need a lot of input, but trained properly on ICH guidelines, all the pharmacopoeia and other guidelines. Would still need real time info on system condition, materials used, lab stuff and other limitations. But this could be prompted by the AI given the right instructions. 😊

Nice to see you being positive about stuff.

I'm thinking this could act very similarly to CAQDAS in generating text from semi-structured interviews, focus group transcriptions, etc. and if it can analyze graphical data, it could easily be used for qualitative research. I imagine you could even feed it information allowing it to adopt a theoretical framework, methodology, etc.

This is crazy useful...but will definitely need more people to verify the accuracy of the information

Greetings from Brazil!

Great content, subscribed!!

You just helped me unlock a great way to keep GPT-4 from hallucinating while I cram a 100,000 word novel I've written into it. Subbed, sir.

Super interesting! GPT just makes things way more efficient...

Im going to use GPT4 to help combine papers about FTL travel to build a framework for warp field propulsion and navigation.

Gpt4 gave me a reading list. It’s links were suspect but the books were spot on

This is incredible

It was a few weeks ago, but I asked it a genetics question, and good a decent answer. I asked for citations and they were VERY realistic looking but the ones I got weren't real. It even had correct journal names and volume/year, and then made up the rest. This may have been 3.5.

idk whether anyone already commented this, but I jsut wanted to leave the tip, that it's not actually necessary to tell gpt to "read this and say Read" 🙂 It is very capable to distinguish your instructions from the text you're pasting, as long as you paste it with quotation marks. So you could start your prompt saying "I will be pasting X bellow, I want you to do Y with it." make a new paragraph and paste all the text at once with Quotation marks. Gpt has no problems distinguishing your isntructions from its materials, so that extra step is unecessary and you might save time like that 🙏 * should also say it also doesn't struggle to find additional isntructions BETWEEN pasted texts, as long as you narrate it properly like "pasted text" And here is info on X: "more pasted text" The bellow text I would like you to remember in order to do XYZ: "test" Using all of the texts above, I want you to X, V, Y and ABC. I haven't run into any issues with complex requests on many snippets, as long as they are properly quoted and the isntructions are clear

Hi Andy, very interesting video and good job. I'm a resident-physician and have very limited time to do research due to clinical duties. I'm wondering if you would be able to make a video on how to best use GPT-4 or other AI tools to perform data analysis (ex: asking ChatGPT or AI to interpret table/diagram/figure/chart).

Fabulous ❤

This is brilliant and so well timed. I'm starting a duel masters in Public Health and Health Administration in two weeks. Slightly shitting myself as I work full time and have two young kids! Chatgpt will hopefully be my saviour 😂

Hi Andy, great video. I’m a researcher myself, and I’m interested in incorporating AI into my daily research tasks. However, my comment is more of an open discussion on how you feel using AI in the ways that you’ve explored in your video. I’ve tried using AI in these ways but I just have this feeling of guilt. Guilt, for using AI knowing that researchers who have come before me didn’t and that I’m somewhat ‘less’ of a legit researcher. I would be interested to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Thank you 😎

I bought plus for gpt4 and I can also say it's waaay better overall. It actually feels smart unlike 3 which felt like a robot.

Can you share the code you used to transcribe the KZfaq video?

I think these are all great ideas, we just need to be wary about what text you're exposing to the OpenAI and the wider internet.

Hi Andy Stapleton, great video on research! Could you kindly share the real links for the mentioned ChatGPT-4 in the video description or comment section? It would be greatly appreciated for easy access to the discussed resources. Thank you!

This app is very very impresive thankyou for this vedio

this is awesome!! can you share any suggestions on the code you made! thank you

bro this tips are going to increase the productivity of your viewers by several times.

Im currently writing my thesis and im really on the fence if i should get it - any opinions either way?

Jane Smith seems to be its favourite researcher. When I gave it inputs from a paper I’d written Jane Smith got the credit there too!

I Like this guys „provide..me..with..“ voice.

Thank you for sharing. I was asked to share with my colleagues how to use AI apps for research, I must be honest, I will use more from your videos😂

Top man.

Hey Dr. Stapleton Can you provide the source code you use for transcribing videos?

Great video ! Many thanX 2 quick questions: Is your piece of Python code available somewhere ? And how to get a local mp3 file analyzed ? Thanks

Love your Vids, could you link to the Script you used.cheers

Incredibly, it seems the thinking part is being outsourced and you are an editor.

Can I let chat gpt wirte about a topic, then change some sentences etc. if necessary. And then search for fitting sources for the parts written. I have problems with writing but i am good at searching. Do you think this would work for a thesis? At the end I would definitely run the paper through a plagiarism scanner.

Hi, great video. How can I extract the text from audio?

Thank you Andy for the video. But i have one question, based on youtube terms and conditions, i think it might be illigal to download youtube videos. Am I correct?

Hello, the video to text part was interesting, could you make a basic tutorial or show how one could do that?

I like that you are so friendly to the AI and say please with every question. But is it actually necessary?

thank you, andy :)

Hi Dr Andy, Really enjoying your podcast on my DBA journey. Could you please let me know how you and the "New line" to the input field in GPT? When I press enter "CR" it simply starts the AI.

there's an easier way to get the text from a KZfaq video without the need for a python program. You just copy the transcript that KZfaq provides directly (which will have lots of time stamps in) and then paste that into chatgpt (even 3.5 will do this) and then ask it to remove all the time stamps and turn it into a continuous piece of text

If I buy the sub, do I automatically get access to all versions??? Or is there a whole separate route for GTP 4?

As a Masters student, I have thoroughly enjoyed your content. I'm looking for a time tracking app that also includes options for goals setting and managing projects. Any recommendations? Maybe a good topic for a video - apps for students?

Found it funny that you actually say "please"

so envy for the recent phd students :/ shoulda do another one after seeing the recent developments in ai :D coulda so much easier and faster to finish

Hi Dr. ANDY I really benefited from ur content. I'm master degree in materials science and my research interests is about incorporating silver nanoparticles in membranes fabrication but I couldn't find a problem or a gap research to bridge, so l'd to get ur help here or anyone with the right experience.

Imagine when those models gain Theorem Prover capabilities, like COQ, they will be able to actually analyze the logical propositions of those papers by cross examining them and given the laws of nature and logic that we now verify if they are logically valid or not. Engineering will be a walk in the park after this for instance.

thx

This is a game changer. Thanks for sharing! Is it possible to use gpt 4 already without paying?

Andy, is it safe to upload our real-life (anonimized of course) research data into chat gpt?

It's awesome for an already published work. Although, I wonder how safe it is to upload some of my unpublished work and create an abstract or rough draft of the manuscript with this?

What Python environment are you using there? Am asking because I'm just getting started with Python.

Making a huge assumption that the out put is accurate, correct and is actually something new and of value.

Dear Andy, a lot thanks! I am studying church and politics (Ph.D.). How can benefit the most from chat gpt 4?

Thank yoy for posting this video. This is extremely controversial in academia and writing world. Pro and cons are an ongoing discussion. Your video shows an ethical way to use this IA tool. It shows the commands and inputs make the difference. Simple commands may be more effective. For example, You showed great examples of commands a bit wordier, so I wonder if shorter commands would be more efficient. Again I appreciate the way you suggested to use it which contains the ethical components that researchers fear being jeopardize at the use of this new technology

If I provide multiple sections of my doctoral dissertation research, will the chatgpt redistribute that content to other users who could publish related work before I publish my own research? I just mean the pliagiarism not findings.

"Then man made the machine in his own likeness."

Do you have a quick tutorial or link on how to install the speech to text software that reads KZfaq videos

I'm going to try taking the cc from a podcast or documentary on KZfaq and ask chat gpt to summarize it

Can I use your video as part of my references for a scientific abstract?

please can you make a guideline video on chatgpt 4.0 plus in scientific rerearch?

Dear Dr based on you explanation I found that chatgpt is like a child that we can train it with correct feed and prompt give it. Please correct or confirm my feedback

Looks like the KZfaq algorithm knows me better than my barber! Is Andy Stapleton the beard or the man behind it? Either way, I'm intrigued.

Is gpt 4 detectable by premium Ai detecion softwares? I have am using it to speed up the literature review of my thesis but also reviewing and editing the output. The thesis is going to be out in October, i am afraid for that time ai detectors will catch up to gpt 4

Is ChatGPT better to use for providing references & citations? I wasn't able to get ChapGPT 3.5 to do it. It say's it can't provide or search for references.

Does it draw on corpora resources as well?

The chatgpt4 window of context is around 8000 words. Which relates to: Academic articles: GPT-4 can process and comprehend most academic articles, including research papers and review articles, which typically range from 3,000 to 10,000 words. Magazine features: GPT-4 can handle in-depth magazine feature articles, such as those found in publications like National Geographic or The New Yorker, which often range from 3,000 to 7,000 words.

Is it ok to use chat GPT to correct English grammar and improve language used when writing manuscripts? Will that be an issue with journals?

Still amazed at the amount of people who's jobs revolve, in large parts, around typing and don't make any effort in improving their typing. At age 40, that was me. Now I can touch type and it's a massive boost in productivity and well being. Learn to touch type and thank me later

is differet from standar version to plus version?

nice

How abt machine learning? Assuming chatgpt-4 unable to know certain fact or even any thing beyond Sept 21,can it accept your knowledge passed to it?

This is great - now that ChatGPT exists I know that at least one “person” will read my paper

Looks like its writing your scripts for you pretty good too

For gpt 4's analysis of images (not yet out) it was able to solve a university physics problem with a figure as shown in the openAI website. It also understands why memes are funny. It's clear that it can understand an images from a scientific article. I would expect that the probably very expensive 32000 token limit version (maybe even ones with a smaller limit) can explain an article in it's entirety if you feed some definition of terms and maybe even other highly cited articles it references
