Science Journalism

Science journalism is evolving rapidly, leveraging artificial intelligence to improve the accessibility and efficiency of scientific communication. Current research focuses on developing and evaluating large language models (LLMs) for tasks such as summarizing scientific papers, generating lay summaries, and creating figures, often employing techniques like mixture-of-experts and retrieval-augmented generation. This work aims to enhance public understanding of science, improve the efficiency of scientific writing and figure creation, and address challenges in evaluating and ensuring the reliability of AI-driven scientific outputs.
