Abstract
As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into the generation and delivery of information, new tools are emerging to assist researchers and clinicians with discovery, search, and reviews. These tools, such as Elicit, Scite, and Research Rabbit, promise to revolutionize academic research by offering superhuman speed in analyzing papers, building citation chains, and writing reviews. Despite these advancements, trust in AI remains low among researchers. To maximize the benefits of AI while mitigating risks, researchers should adopt a hybrid approach that combines AI-generated insights with traditional scholarly methods. Ongoing assessment and comparison of AI tools will be crucial in maintaining academic standards and ensuring ethical responsibility as the technology continues to evolve.
