讲座内容/ Abstract:

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the research process, changing how evidence is collected, analysed and interpreted. This talk considers what that means for the social sciences, where causality, behaviour, institutions and judgement remain central. It reviews emerging uses of AI across research, from literature synthesis and data analysis to surveys, causal inference, modelling and agentic systems. Drawing on ongoing work on AI and environmental policy analysis, the talk examines where AI can genuinely improve analytical practice, where its contribution remains uncertain, and what new risks arise. It concludes by considering how researchers and universities should respond to these changes.
