Abstract
This workshop focuses on leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) tools to enhance thesis writing for postgraduate students. It introduces participants to the basics of AI and demonstrates how tools like GPT and SCITE can be applied across various thesis chapters, including the introduction, literature review, methodology, and results. The workshop emphasizes AI's role in complementing human research activities, such as data analysis, content generation, and citation management. Participants will gain practical experience using AI to refine their thesis while adhering to academic guidelines. Ethical considerations, limitations, and the need for human judgment in AI-assisted research are also discussed.
