Artificial Intelligence in Creation of Scientific Written Works: Weighing the Benefits and Ethical Dilemmas - Should We Use It?

The implementation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within the realm of scientific writing, particularly in the natural sciences, has captured considerable interest recently. This technological advancement appears to be an instrument poised to substantially transform the production of research findings in terms of both quantity and quality. However, the stance towards the adoption of this tool remains ambivalent. While AI holds the potential to reshape the essence of writing by enabling authors to swiftly produce superior textual content, numerous concerns persist concerning various practical issues. In this paper, we examine the diverse advantages offered by the integration of AI in scientific writing and explain how it can be utilized to enhance the accuracy, consistency, and efficiency of written work in the field of natural sciences. Ethical considerations are also explored in the context of AI application in scientific writing, addressing matters related to authorship, bias, and accountability. Ultimately, we aim to summarize the benefits and drawbacks of this approach for scientific composition, determine whether any genuine ethical concerns arise from its adoption, and, of course, provide a response to the prevailing question – that is, should we employ it.
