Abstract

ChatGPT and LLaMA AI Modelling are advancing computer science scientific research in several ways. We discuss the capabilities of ChatGPT and LLaMA to advance computer science research in this review. Whereas LLaMA is an automated dialogue system that can respond to questions about scientific subjects, ChatGPT is an NLP model that can create dialogues. The authors contend that by offering scientists more effective methods for data collection and analysis, these two technologies have the potential to fundamentally alter the way they conduct research. According to the authors, ChatGPT and LLaMA could be used to speed up data collection and analysis and give researchers more accurate findings. Additionally, they propose that similar technologies may be employed to develop virtual assistants for scientists, enabling them to easily access pertinent data and take better decisions. Additionally, they think that these technologies could be utilized to enhance inter-scientist communication, facilitating more productive collaboration. There are many benefits of employing LLaMA and ChatGPT in scientific research. These innovations may shorten the time required for data gathering and analysis while also giving researchers more precise findings. These might also help scientists communicate more effectively with one another, which would improve collaboration. Using these tools for scientific study does have certain restrictions. In the real world, it is unknown, for instance, how trustworthy the outcomes produced by ChatGPT and LLaMA would be. Furthermore, it's not obvious how long it would take to train these models before they could be put to good use in a research environment. Prior to putting AI-based systems into practice in the real world, it is important to consider the ethical issues surrounding their use for scientific study.
