Title: Responsive AI use in Research

Generative AI tools are being integrated rapidly into general-use and academic software platforms, including those used to search the scholarly literature. These changes have come before and there has been time to develop best practices to guide when and how to use these tools appropriately.

This session will help answer the following questions:

1. What are the requirements and prohibitions around using generative AI in the research process?

2. What ethical dilemmas should we inform when we decide to use generative AI?

3. Where are the risks for inaccuracy when using generative AI in research?

4. How is generative AI being used to facilitate literature review?

5. What literature review tasks are generative AI currently suitable for?
