To What Extent Can AI Simplify Academic Paper Writing?

Abstract: In the AI era, how will the work of researchers change and what will the future of the research profession be like? This paper discusses how academic paper writing can be made more efficient through AI assistance. To facilitate our discussion, we used a somewhat unusual approach. Noting that the novelty and inventive step of an invention and the originality and academic significance of an academic paper are the same, we propose a six-step model for AI-assisted academic paper writing, inspired by AI-assisted patent prior art search. On the basis of the proposed model, we present our thoughts on the future of researchers' work and the research profession in general.
