Hello everyone, today let's talk about how to quickly complete your paper using AI tools.
Many beginners may think that they can simply use ChatGPT to generate the paper and ask AI to make some changes. To be honest, although that thing is quite advanced, it can also generate nonsense without you even noticing. So it's still important to write papers rigorously. At this stage, AI tools should be used more as assistance to improve the efficiency of paper writing.
Consensus
First, we need to use Consensus, which is a paper search engine. After posing a question, it will search through a massive amount of papers and retrieve relevant papers with simple summaries for you. Based on the summaries, you can find the ones you think are useful. Clicking on them will display the relevant paragraphs. You can also see if they are frequently cited, the number of citations, publication time, and where they were published, helping you determine the credibility of the paper. If it is confirmed to be useful, you can click on the full text in the upper right corner to jump to the original paper page.
Elicit
There is also a similar website called Elicit. After posing a question, it will sort the papers based on the number of citations, with the most cited ones on the left. On the left side, there is a summary generated based on the first four papers, and on the right side, there are the titles and simple summaries of the papers. Clicking on them will show more detailed summary content, citation numbers, and other information. You can also jump to the original paper page.
Immersive Translation Plugin
Both of these websites require you to ask questions in English, and you can use the immersive translation plugin we introduced earlier to translate the results using the ChatGPT API. It will generate translation results separately under each paragraph, making it convenient for you to check for accuracy.
ChatPDF and ChatDoc
After finding the necessary paper materials, if you have specific questions about specific papers, you don't need to read the entire paper yourself. Depending on the file format, you can upload it to the ChatPDF or ChatDoc website and simply ask the question. ChatGPT will reply to your specific questions based on the content of the paper. Even if you upload an English paper, it will reply to you in Chinese. Very convenient.
ChatPaper
Finally, when you have finished writing your own paper based on the materials, you may find this ChatPaper useful. It provides a comprehensive service.
Reading, polishing, peer review, and answering peer review questions are all supported. It is free and open source, and you can use it with your own API key. It supports multiple deployment methods, such as running as a script on Windows, Mac, and Linux systems. It can also be deployed through Flask service, Docker, or online. Anyway, no matter which method you choose, beginners will have to tinker with it a bit. If you don't want to tinker, you can use the official website, but it only has the summarization function.
