What if there was a way to get AI to write like you, not like a robot?

Here's how to train AI to write in your (academic) style in just 3 simple steps 👇 🔍 Step 1: Gather Representative Writing

Get a few pieces of text that contain good examples of how you write and combine them into AI readable text files using . Gobble.bot

Just tested SciSpace Deep Review AI.

It analyzed 1750 papers and wrote a 3,050-word lit review - in three minutes.

Don't miss this milestone:
👇 While the output isn’t ready for direct publication, the level of detail is remarkable.

AI-assisted tools like @scispace_ are changing how researchers conduct literature reviews

It gets faster, easier and more structured.

I just built a "Research Oracle", an AI that speeds up my research.

Here is how you can build yours:
👇 A "Research Oracle" is an AI that contains a lot of knowledge about your research. Once you built it use it to:

✅ Find citations
✅ Polish writing & logical flow in your manuscripts
✅ Help with lit reviews
✅ Suggest new ideas for your research
✅ Check for errors

I tried 50+ academic GPTs.

Most are just amateur projects.

Here are the top 18 that will actually boost your productivity: If you have never used CustomGPTs:
→ Go to ChatGPT
→ Click "Explore GPTs
→ Search for the GPTs mentioned above
→ Start a conversation

Struggling to write research papers?

I found a game-changing method using AI:
(prompt in the thread)
👇 Here is an example of what core sentence s look like.

Each sentence will be expanded into a full paragraph using AI.

Using the right plugins in your browser can save you hours in academic research.

Here are the top 9 you need to know:
(links and tutorials in thread)
👇 1. @scispace_

An AI reading assistant that explains technical concepts and sections in research papers. It helps tackle dense academic language, saving time and effort.

Almost done with the slides for this upcoming webinar.

It will be aimed at note-taking and synthesis.

Here is a sneak peak:
👇 Note Taking

Most people take notes in the order they learn about the content.

This is wrong.

Conceptual notes are much more powerful.

Because you don't repeat yourself and use links instead.

Everybody uses Google Docs.

But most don't install any of the 100+ extensions.

Unlock hidden features and save time with these 4 must-use extensions: 👇
(I use them for scientific papers) What are extensions?

Extensions add functionality that Google Docs does not have.

Each extension adds a sidebar where it can be configured and activated.

Google does not develop these extensions but they gain access to your content.

Be aware of privacy issues.

I thought I would spend days on this lit review.

It took me just 10 minutes (no joke)!

Here is how and what tool I used:
👇 My Topic:

I am figuring out how forests react to climate change in New Zealand.

The big question: Who has done it before?
(A vast literature review question that can take hours)

Googling it, I found only a single paper: [Wardle 1992]
Really!?

Struggling with the discussion section?

Here is an unconventional strategy:

1. Lay out findings from papers on a canvas
2. Link each one to the PDF
3. Group by Topic
4. Summarize what you see as text
5. Flesh out and polish

Let's look at the details:
👇 For this, I am using the @obsdmd Canvas feature. If you are unfamiliar, check out this thread:

Lost in your research?

Create a research map - it's easy.

Here's how to start and find that research gap:
👇 1. Use @drawio

A free tool for building research maps.

Drag boxes from the left sidebar.

Customize it with the buttons on the right sidebar.

Every academic wants to find meaningful research gaps.

❌ Old way: Read 1000s of papers
✅ New way: A step-by-step, visual strategy

Here's my workflow using Obsidian, Litmaps, Consensus and DrawIO:
(and a webinar on how to do this!)
👇 1. Start with finding research questions

Sometimes there are papers dedicated to identifying them.
This will make your literature review process ENJOYABLE, as you won't follow ideas that are irrelevant (but inspire you personally).

Here are two examples:

Double your productivity in Google Docs.

Learn these 12 essential keyboard shortcuts.

Windows & Mac:
👇 1. Paste without Style

Ever pasted something from Word or a browser and noticed that the format is completely broken?

Paste without format to avoid this. Press:

⌘ + ⇧ + V (Mac)
CTRL + SHIFT + V (Win)

In this example I copy from MS Word and the style is totally off.

What makes top researchers so productive?

They know what tools to use and when.

👇 1. Find key research questions for paper:

@scispace_ is an AI search engine for papers.

Ask a question and get papers as results.

Academics read and annotate papers daily.

PDF++ lets you search and connect these annotations.

Here is how to use it 👇:
(A game changer if you are using Zotero) Here's how it looks:

The annotation inside the PDF is linked (yellow text) in my notes.

Hover the link to get a preview.

Click on it to open the annotated PDF in a new tab.

PDF++ makes it easy to connect notes to PDFs.

Let's do it step by step...

This is Niklas Luhmann.

He has more citations than 99% of scientists.
And 70+ books.

Here is how he did it:
(...steal his secret) Luhmann (1927-1998) was a German sociologist and philosopher studying how societies function.

He wrote over 70 books and 400 articles on topics like law, politics, and art.

Luhmann described society as a self-sustaining system and was influential, especially in Germany.

Everybody uses Google Docs.

But most don't know its best features.

11 features that save time and make your work more professional:
(even for scientific papers)
👇 1. Folding

If you have a long document this is a life saver.

Create a heading.
Next to the heading click the ">" button to fold all text beneath this heading.

ChatGPT just received a massive upgrade: GPT-4omni.

It's a game-changer for academics/students.

Here is how it works and how to start using it:
👇 ✅ One model instead of three

ChatGPT now talks in real time, can capture clues like laughter, intonation and even video input. This has to do with its new architecture.

How it works:

Talking to ChatGPT is not new but it is done differently now. Previously there were 3 models:

- One translated audio to text
- then the normal ChatGPT answered your query
- and then another model translated that text to audio.

This was slow and most importantly missed key cues of communication like voice, intonation and so on.

In the new model there is a single model that is not just text→ text but directly audio→ audio. It does not require model 1 and 3 anymore.

Key benefit is it's faster, can tell multiple voices apart and feels much more natural.

The best researchers aren't geniuses. They're well-organized.

This is my favorite system to organize 1000s of notes.

Simple, yet powerful:
👇 1. The Problem

Taking notes helps you remember only if you can find your notes.

My vault has almost 400k words over 1000+ notes (and countless PDFs/Screenshots).

To find things easier you need to have MULTIPLE layers of organization. Divide and conquer.

Struggling with remembering where you saved a note?

Use Rainbow Folders: A hidden feature in Obsidian.

Here is how:
👇 Obsidian (@obsdmd) is a free software if you are serious about organizing knowledge (e.g. academics)

Organize by: Folders, Tags or Maps of Content

Rainbow folders gives every folder a color making them easier to find.

There are two modes: Backgrounds(Left) or Titles (Mid)

Plagiarism is a serious problem in academia.

Even a misplaced citation can massively damage your reputation.

Luckily AI is great at spotting plagiarism. Here is how:
👇 1. Plagiarism is complex

If you look at the Harvard Guide it identifies 6 types of plagiarism.

"Uncited paraphrase" might be the most difficult to spot.

Here you might mention established findings from older papers without citing them.
