Things we learned @paperpile by asking 1,800 researchers about their use of AI tools in science: 1. ChatGPT is dominating and it's not even really close. Purpose-built apps for research are way down in the long tail. 1/n
2. Researchers hope to use AI for a wide range of activities, from the obvious (summarize papers for me!) to the barely-possible-today (critique my manuscript & write my grant section for me) 2/n
3. People notice that ChatGPT and Gemini can't access paywalled articles; this is a clear opening for tools like Paperpile to help close the gap. 3/n
4. Most researchers are excited about the potential for AI to improve their work life. But there's a minority (<10%) of users who are anti-AI, for a fascinating array of reasons.
5. With this data in mind, we defined three principles that will guide Paperpile's approach to incorporating and integrating with AI. We're heads down on the first launch and excited to share some great time-saving features with our user community soon!
