actually, Elsevier even allowed the use of AI in our journal writing. They only demand that we are the one that must be responsible for anything written by the AI, thus making us to thoroughly verify the data given by the AI. That’s it.

Here's how I use GPT for research so I always have the essence of a paper for quick reference:
1. I export my PDF to a .txt file, then run it through a "RecursiveSummarizer" with my API key. This is available on youtube - use it.
2. I do this once or twice depending on how concise I want the summary to be.
3. I then run the summary through ChatGPT, asking for concise bullet points.
4. I use a custom recursive quoting modification of the recursive summarizer script to pull out what GPT thinks are the most important quotes in a text.

This also helps me read more quickly - I can quickly skim through whole articles with their most important quotes in minutes.

Thank you again, Andy. Your videos allowed me to finish my thesis a year in advance

So ChatGPT extracted this key points of your video:
1. The speaker is impressed with what Chat GPT4 can do and thinks it's perfect for research.

2. Chat GPT4 can provide real references and links to papers in various fields, though not all links may work.

3. Chat GPT4 can analyze a large amount of text and create scaffolds for writing abstracts, presentations, and other research.

4. By analyzing conference presentations, Chat GPT4 can extract important information and turn it into useful outcomes.

The ability to summarise is very attractive to my short attention span and the "use as many words as possible to make sure you know its important" style many like to use. I think most people like to learn but often just skip it all together because the process is often un enjoyable eg. reading a whole book for a week just to learn a couple of important things. Your average person is about to become a whole lot more knowledgeable about a whole lot more things.

I find it helpful to tell it what I want and ask it to rephrase it as a more effective prompt. Then use the prompt to generate the desired response. I get much better results that way.

I love seeing meaningful youtube content on ChatGPT prompting. I have three tips (and a comparison) to offer you @Andy that will help with the ideas you've expressed in this video:

First, If you want to guardrail hallucinations, add the instruction "If you do not know the answer, do not speculate." Hallucinations are powerful for creative outcomes but dangerous for research outcomes. This instruction can be layered with many other instructions and appears non ambiguous in multiple context. This is not full proof, I'll admit, because the AI does not know the difference between an answer it tells itself and an answer you tell it, or an answer contained in its training data. But this will guardrail hallucination to a noticeable degree.

Second, An extremely simple and concise reverse engineering prompt is:

"Rewrite this as a prompt for an AI language model. Write it as an instruction to the model using the template: 'You are [role]. Your goal is [goal]. To achieve this goal, these are the rules: [rules]'"

Third, There are multiple critical layers (prompts) you can pass the resulting prompt through to ensure that the prompt retains all critical information while simplifying and standardizing the prompt style so that it is clearly understandable by the AI language model. I'll let you iterate through that. It's a fun journey.

Fourth, for comparison, I use "Read and acknowledge the following {text} then await further instructions. text = [text to read]". There are lots of tips around how to improve productivity through the use of punctuation and formatting of the input because of the way that the text is tokenized behind the scenes. It's fascinating stuff.

Best wishes in the future of your channel.

Hi Andy, Thank you for your videos and online material. MS Word is capable of extracting text from audio files and from dictation

[anaguzmanstudent]

I loved your video. Thank you! I am new to ChtGPT and want to play around with it. You gave me a good push!

[heywrandom]

You can also ask the chat interface of the new Bing (which has gpt 4 ) or Elicit for references from a natural language prompt.

i love how you still correct your typos 😍

[louspie]

ANDY, I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THE IMAGE ANALYSIS!!! I hope it comes super soon!

[leomozdzenski]

Hi Andy! Really thanks a lot for the tips! I am learning a lot from your videos. Greetings from Brazil! 👏👏👏👏👏

[adrianfeeger]

you have helped it change my life.... ps it does decent recipes when given ingredients and a intention too

[womenfluencer]

I LOVE your videos. Thank you so much!

[UKHistoryExplorer]

Thank you for sharing valuable experience . It really helped me in my Phd journey ❤

[msc.jayashankarassociates-]

Excellent video on Chat GPT usage and benefits, Thanks

[SusHerref]

Such a good new!. Thanks for all the amazing content 🤓. Cheers from Bolivia.

[erik_carter_art]

I got such a kick out of you telling ChatGPT to read something and to tell you when it's done. 😂 It's instant. You could just say, "Create a scaffold abstract using the below abstracts as templates" and then copy and paste all of the abstracts in the same chat entry.

I'm binge-watching a lot your videos! They are very informative ! Keep doing the excelent work, Andy! Hugs from Brazil!!
