Christophe Gouel (PSAE) will present “AI tools for research”.

 

Abstract:

This  presentation provides an overview of AI tools, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), and their applications in research. Focusing on the capabilities of models like GPT-4, it covers their potential use  cases, including writing assistance, coding, entity recognition, and  literature review. The presentation highlights how LLMs can enhance  productivity in tasks such as drafting, editing, and idea generation, while also addressing limitations like  hallucinations and plagiarism concerns. Practical demonstrations of  interacting with LLMs through chat interfaces, APIs, and AI copilots are  provided, emphasizing the importance of prompt engineering and customization. The talk concludes by noting the rapid advancements  in AI tools and their growing role in academic research.
