Scopus, Dimensions and Web of Science are introducing conversational AI search.
AI chatbots such as ChatGPT are being linked with scientific databases to create conversational search experiences.The conversational AI-powered chatbots that have come to Internet search engines, such as Google’s Bard and Microsoft’s Bing, look increasingly set to change scientific search too.
In response to a text-based question, Scopus AI returns a fluent summary of a research topic as well as relevant references.A concern about LLMs for search — especially scientific search — is that they are unreliable. LLMs don’t understand the text they produce; they work simply by spitting out words that are stylistically plausible. Their output can contain factual errors and biases and, as academics have quickly found, can make up non-existent references.
Might users simply copy and paste the bot’s paragraphs into their own papers, effectively plagiarizing the tool? That’s a possibility, says Khan. Elsevier has so far tackled this with guidance that asks researchers to use the summaries responsibly, he says.
Dimensions also uses the LLM to provide some more details about relevant papers, including short rephrased summaries of their findings.
