Can artificial intelligence write science? A comparative analysis of human-written and artificial intelligence–generated scientific writings
Although AI models can improve some aspects of scientific writing, particularly clarity and readability, they fall short in critical reasoning and contextual understanding. This reinforces the importance of human authorship and oversight in maintaining the critical analysis and scientific accuracy essential for academic publishing. AI may be used as a complementary tool to support, rather than replace, human-led scientific writing.
