Abstract

AI writing tools raise concerns of misuse in academics. However, AI can aid, not automate, pre-writing. The author shows how AI can assist scholarly writing through activities like organizing freewriting notes into outlines, recommending titles and journals, and summarizing/comparing literature. AI expedites idea generation, focus, literature review and positioning - serving as a collaborative muse, not replacement, for human creativity.
