[ChatGPT in scientific research: a guide to informed use].

Using ChatGPT in scientific research offers revolutionary opportunities thanks to its natural language interaction capabilities and production of coherent and sophisticated text.Artificial intelligence can automate activities such as information synthesis and schematization, improving scientific communication and computer code writing.However, the lack of a complete understanding of context, the risk of spreading misleading information, and the possibility of plagiarism represent some of the biggest limitations in the current use of this technology.The role of human experience remains fundamental for in-depth understanding of context, exercising critical thinking, and ensuring respect for the ethical principles of scientific research.A responsible and aware use of tools such as ChatGPT can offer great benefits to the scientific community, but it is essential to remember that these tools are only a support and cannot replace human judgment and experience.
