Can research papers be faked using ChatGPT? These slides were presented at the Welsh Integrity and Assessment Network Symposium Event in June 2023 and considered examples of research using ChatGPT in ways that could be considered both ethical and unethical. The session included a live demo showing how ChatGPT can be used to construct a research paper. Screenshots of the live demo are included at the end of the slide set.
