Welcome to the second seminar in the seminar series on generative AI use in doctoral research.
Doctoral research takes many forms – fieldwork, experiments, archives, quantitative or qualitative data. But, at some point, the practical work of research must be transformed into a text, a thesis, that can be defended and examined. GenAI tools offer a range of assistance with this process of creating a text, from translation to brainstorming to revising to writing. How much can we use genAI tools to create a thesis and still be considered the author of the thesis? Who is responsible for the text in the case of queries – student, supervisor, institution or Co-pilot?
This seminar introduces three different perspectives around creation, prompting and translation in relation to production of dissertation text. Each of our speakers will have 15 minutes to put forward their perspective on the impact of these tools on the production of text, before we open the floor to debate!
The speakers:
- Dimitrios Grammenos, The Foundation for Research and Technology – Hellas (FORTH), Greece
- Eva Medin, Högskolan i Borås
- Anders Sonesson, Lund University
