Ajantha Abey - How to use basic AI as a daily research tool

Ajantha Abey narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog, Ajantha outlines the benefits and pitfalls of using AI chatbots in research. He emphasises their proficiency in language tasks and idea generation, but also warns against overreliance on AI for tasks requiring factual accuracy, as AI can fabricate data. He suggests a balanced approach to using AI as a tool to augment, but not replace, the researcher's own critical thinking and creativity - listen to his full advise in the audio version of this blog.
