Navigating the ethical complexities of using generative AI for academic writing
About
The project explores how academic researchers and students use generative AI chatbots (e.g., ChatGPT) for academic writing, publishing, or coursework assignments. Our goal is to better understand the evolving practices, motivations, and experiences of academic writers in the age of AI.
The project is run by the University of Warwick, in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh and Sophia University, Tokyo. A Leverhulme Trust Research Project Grant funds this project.
Take part
Are you an academic researcher or a university student who uses generative AI chatbots (e.g., ChatGPT) to support your academic writing? Academic writing includes, but is not limited to, tasks such as: drafting, editing, proofreading, literature reviews, coding, data analysis, assignments, or writing academic publications.
If you would like to share your experiences, you can take part in our anonymous online survey
