AI tools can be used to prepare and analyse research and large data sets, speeding up the processing of information and helping students to organise resources more effectively. Nevertheless, students are ultimately responsible for the outputs processed by AI. However, students should not use AI to formulate conclusions and critical analyses, as this would limit their critical thinking and their ability to generate new ideas independently.
