What SciSpace does in ChatGPT
The SciSpace plugin searches for academic papers from ChatGPT and shows them in a table you can adjust. Each paper comes with its details and a link, so you can see quickly what was found and where to read more.
You can add columns such as abstract, summary, methods, results and conclusions to judge which papers matter and how solid they look. The listing describes three stages it supports: finding papers, sorting through them, and pulling them together into one picture.
Once you have a list, you can use it as the base for literature review notes, a summary grouped by theme, or a new search that goes deeper into one angle. You can also ask it to review a topic and write up a report.
