Abstract

Abstract Can Artificial Intelligence (AI) be used for good in the academic and creative worlds? This is a question that is being asked by educators who are concerned about student learning and academic integrity AI use in higher education. Numerous articles decry the potential of college students using AI to cheat on exam questions, discussion board posts, and research papers. Yet, through the use of language learning models (LLM), AI may be used as a tool to increase efficiency, perform repetitive tasks, and aid with research and analysis. It is through the lens of AI as a tool, not as a concern or replacement of human involvement, that the authors examined Elicit.org, a literature review search tool that uses LLM to aid the research process.

摘要人工智能（AI）能否在学术和创意领域发挥有益作用？这是对高等教育中学生学习和学术诚信使用人工智能表示担忧的教育工作者提出的问题。许多文章谴责大学生利用人工智能在考试问题、讨论区帖子和研究论文上作弊的可能性。然而，通过使用语言学习模型（LLM），人工智能可以作为一种工具来提高效率、执行重复性任务以及帮助研究和分析。作者正是从将人工智能作为工具而非关注或取代人工参与的角度出发，研究了 Elicit.org，这是一款使用 LLM 来辅助研究过程的文献综述搜索工具。

期刊介绍： Public Services Quarterly covers a broad spectrum of public service issues in academic libraries, presenting practical strategies for implementing new initiatives and research-based insights into effective practices. The journal publishes research-based and theoretical articles as well as case studies that advance the understanding of public services, including reference and research assistance, information literacy instruction, access and delivery services, and other services to patrons. Articles may examine creative ways to use technology to assist students and faculty. Practice-based articles should be thoroughly grounded in the literature and should situate the work done in one library into the larger context of the situation.
