Will ChatGPT and Related AI-Tools Alter the Future of the Geosciences and Petroleum Engineering?
Authors: Ruud Weijermars, Umair bin Waheed, Kanan Suleymanli
Abstract: A key aim of this paper is to explore how our professional tasks as geoscientists and petroleum engineers can be completed more effectively making use of tools powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), offered in commercial platforms now readily available to individual users. This paper intends to provide some guidance, but at the same time does not claim to be comprehensive or conclusive in any way. The paper presents a utility assessment from the research and teaching vantage points of two professors and one student, from geosciences and petroleum engineering departments. After a brief overview of the new technologies, some key questions raised include: How can one assess originality of class papers by students and research papers by their professors? How will the contribution of intelligent devices be acknowledged? Will the presentation of conference papers by author avatars be accepted by the organizing committee?
