Abstract
The study conducted a literature review focusing on the role of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) utilized as an academic assistant. Within the scope of the research, the opportunities and challenges presented by GAI-based academic assistants to researchers, along with a detailed examination of tools used in the research process, were intended to be explored. It was emphasized that artificial intelligence applications used in academic writing processes have the potential to expedite tasks such as performing repetitive functions, literature reviews, data analysis, and document organization effectively. This situation was noted to offer a range of advantages for students and researchers. However, it was underscored that considerations regarding accuracy, reliability, and ethical concerns must be considered. Factors limiting the effectiveness of GAI in academic writing processes, such as limitations in language understanding, concerns about ethical violations, and difficulties in selecting appropriate data visualization, were discussed.
