Zajímá vás, co nám může AI prozradit o benefitech a impaktech daného projektu? Bude AI vyplňovat projektové přihlášky? Zahajujeme kolekci článků na téma AI nástrojů ve VaVaI praxi.

Necelý rok zpátky – každopádně v “předChatGPT-době” – si jeden můj známý, který zrovna podával návrh projektu do jednoho z programů podpory ve VaVaI, posteskl, že místo popisu samotného výzkumu sepisuje slohová cvičení o naplňování “tohoto a támhletoho cíle z toho a onoho strategického dokumentu”, vypisuje přínosy pro tu či onu cílovou skupinu… Nebudu napínat. Financování na projekt získal, neb kromě přípravy reálně kvalitního projektu dokázal rovněž sepsat i dostatečně obecné fráze obsahující “ta správná hesla” o synergiích, pozitivních vlivech, nediskriminaci aj. lahodící očím školených oponentů. Nadhodil jsem, že se už těším na dobu, kdy vytváření podobných textů zastanou nástroje NLP (natural language processing). Netušil jsem ovšem, že ona doba není až tak vzdálená – ChatGPT se objevil na scéně několik měsíců poté.

Jelikož hravost je výzkumníkům vlastní ve větší míře než “běžné populaci”, nebylo překvapením, že krátce po uvedení ChatGPT do obecného povědomí, se schopnosti ChatGPT staly oblíbeným tématem nevážných rozhovorů i vážných disputací ve výzkumných organizacích, na akademické půdě i v akademickém sklepě – a ve všech patrech akademické hierarchie.

Rádi bychom v rámci ResearchJobs.cz do této diskuse také přispěli. Chystáme proto kolekci několika článků, které se tématem budou zabývat:

• Pokusíme se zamyslet nad otázkou, zda se v nejbližších letech rozevře digitální propast mezi “AI” a “ne-AI” akademickými a výzkumnými pracovníky.
• Představíme si některé AI nástroje, které mohou přispět k vyšší efektivitě výzkumné, resp. akademické práce.
• Podíváme se na to, jak by na daný vývoj mohli/měli reagovat poskytovatelé podpory ve VaVaI.

Abychom se naladili na správnou vlnu, požádali jsme ChatGPT, aby nám ke třem náhodně vybraným projektům programu ÉTA Technologické agentury ČR zodpověděl otázku “What may be the non-economic benefits and impacts of this project?”, přičemž projekt byl reprezentován svým názvem a cíli v AJ. (Nejednalo se o otázku, která by byla součástí hodnocení projektu oponenty.)

O úspěšnosti ChatGPT si můžete udělat obrázek podle výstupů níže.

Pokračování příště.
