Brandon Patterson’s project explores how AI-powered tools can support scholarly writing and research while addressing critical limitations in transparency and reproducibility. The study highlights top-performing tools, their role in academic workflows, and the importance of AI literacy for ethical integration.
At the University of Utah, we are embracing artificial intelligence not as a distant future, but as a practical, everyday partner in improving how we work. Across campus, teams are finding ways to use AI to reduce administrative overhead, strengthen decision-making, and create more connected, responsive systems.
Discover how the University of Utah is using artificial intelligence to help students make more confident academic and career decisions. Associate Professor Jim Agutter introduces UGuide, an AI-powered advising tool that personalizes major exploration, connects students with mentors, and supports their path to graduation.
Jess Tate of the SCI Institute shares about the National Data Platform (NDP), an NSF-funded collaboration designed to transform how researchers access, share, and analyze data. By connecting data sources, tools, and compute resources in a federated ecosystem, NDP makes data more findable, accessible, interoperable, and reproducible (FAIR)—advancing collaborative, scalable, and trustworthy science.
