Teif lab at the University of Essex. We work on gene regulation in chromatin and applications to liquid biopsies, using approaches of genomics, biophysics, bioinformatics & AI. Our focus is nucleosomics, TF binding, CTCF, cfDNA. https://generegulation.org
There are cases like *screening* of preprints to establish that they are in general suitable for bioRxiv, which can be outsourced to responsible AI without too much damage

Finally, we propose a model in which chromatin is self-organising based on histone acetylation and nucleosome depletion. We hypothesise that active cis-regulatory elements may contact one another at or above a layer of acetylated nucleosomes.

Great development! I literally thought few days ago that this combination would make perfect sense

Talk - you mean by voice? I noticed that in the voice mode it switches from version 5 to 4, and the difference is remarkable, so i stopped using it in voice mode

Looking good! From our lab, hello to your lab! :)

Here is what ChatGPT replies to this :)
- That’s like using a calculator before learning arithmetic
- Teachers cannot assume students “inspect” the changes
- Overreliance creates long-term dependency
- It can quietly shift student voice
- Language learning can be harmed (removes productive struggle)

I guess the main question is, where is the boundary of helpful language polishing and unhelpful use of AI for academic writing. For me, this boundary is somewhere at the limit of capabilities of standard Word's grammar check or Grammarly's style check (or equivalent).

Polishing language for grammar/style or learning language structure is fine. But the use of ChatGPT for writing anything longer than a sentence may change logic, remove individuality and actually prevent active learning by writing. The latter is the most critical issue from educational perspective.

It seems that it was not introduced by Google Scholar. It is a third-party add-on

Do you mean it is only unidirectional, as in ageing can mediate methylation, but changes of methylation can't affect ageing?
