Like many others, we’ve been exploring the capabilities of AI tools. However, when we started considering their implications in terms of diversity and security, we found ourselves with more questions than answers. We're not afraid to admit that we see potential problems, and we're eager to discuss them.
That’s why we invited Avi Staiman on the podcast. Avi is the founder and CEO of Academic Language Experts. Soon after the launch of ChatGPT and other AI tools, he started talking about how to use it in research and research management, including in writing proposals.
We met Avi at a conference on the topic in Brussels in November 2023, and we agreed to take the conversation to the podcast to balance the potential and the risks. It was a long but fascinating conversation, and as expected, we didn’t disagree that much. However, it shows that using AI tools, particularly in writing research proposals, requires skills and consideration.
We also discuss how AI tools can level the playing field and perhaps even benefit researchers from minority backgrounds.
This episode is produced and edited by Peter Xiong.
