Abstract

En 中文

The Generative Pre-Trained Transformer known as ChatGPT-4 has undergone extensive pretraining on a diverse data set, enabling it to generate coherent and contextually relevant text based on the input it receives. This capability allows it to perform tasks from answering questions and has attracted significant interest in material sciences, synthetic chemistry, and drug discovery. In this work, we posed four advanced task-specific problems to ChatGPT, which were recently published in leading journals for topics in analytical chemistry, spectroscopy, bioimage super-resolution, and electrochemistry. ChatGPT-4 successfully implemented the four ideas after assigning the persona to the AI and posing targeted questions. We show two cases where unguided ChatGPT could complete the assignments with minimal human direction. The construction of a microwave spectrum from a free induction curve and super-resolution of bioimages was accomplished using this approach. Two other specific tasks, correcting a complex baseline with morphological operations of set theory and estimating the diffusion current, required additional input, e.g., equations and specific directions from the user. In each case, the MATLAB code was eventually generated by ChatGPT-4 even when the original authors did not provide any code themselves. We show that a validation test must be implemented to detect and correct mistakes made by ChatGPT-4, followed by feedback correction. These approaches will pave the way for open and transparent science and eliminate the black boxes in measurement science when it comes to advanced data processing.
