Sage Journals: Discover world-class research

Abstract

In this research-to-resource article, I introduce possible uses of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI, for music education research settings. I discuss the impacts of artificial intelligence on education environments and highlight uses of ChatGPT as a tool, including the role of ChatGPT in information gathering, literature review assistance, research design conceptualization, statistical analysis support, research proposal review, and research publication support. I emphasize the importance of human expertise in filling knowledge gaps, detecting incomplete information, and using creative and critical thinking. While acknowledging concerns regarding ethics and plagiarism, I realize the unique qualities of human researchers and the need for purposeful mentoring and training on using artificial intelligence tools for appropriate tasks.
