The Research Whisperer’s Post

There's so much genAI hype and endless pushes to use it, often coming from our own institutions. This project is v. v. timely and we're already looking forward to what it finds! Pls share with your networks and participate if you can! Posted on behalf of Neil Selwyn (Monash University). ------------------------ NEW: Survey on academics’ ‘grey area’ uses of GenAI   We are running a small project to better understand why academics are increasingly feeling the need to turn to GenAI to do things that they know/feel they should ideally be doing themselves.   This might include using GenAI to write peer reviews, draft papers, write student feedback etc. We're sure 99% of this is well-intentioned and about self-survival/managing academic workload, but we'd love to know more about people's different circumstances and reasoning. We've got a very short (3 minute) & totally anonymous drop-box where academics can write their own examples and reasons for turning to GenAI to do things that they'd otherwise want to be doing for themselves.Find out more and complete the survey at this link:   https://lnkd.in/gcCMfeXQ
