                For those of you thinking about AI use in its various forms in social scientific research, Due Cuong Nguyen & Catherine Welch suggest that this use is not only distorting analysis but actually leading researchers to make erroneous conclusions.

                The paper is available open access; like all academic article its not an easy read, but if you're interested in AI (especially in university settings) then its likely of interest.

                Conclusion
We have shown that LLM chatbots are autoregressive models that generate word strings based on probability and ‘learned’ representations from their training data. These models excel at generating coherent synthetic text by predicting the next likely word based on statistical methods. As a result, while generated text may seem plausible, it lacks meaning, nuance and accuracy. Applied to qualitative data analysis, this leads to superficial outputs that imitate the form of established methodological practices and reporting templates—such as coding, theme generation and data structure tables—but that are neither grounded in nor justified by data. The superficial appearance of codes and themes not only creates a false sense of validity and depth but also conceals the absence of analytical engagement, while distracting and distorting the researcher's ability to uncover meaningful insights.
