From September 23 to October 18, members of the University of Tartu will have the opportunity to try the Scopus AI tool in the Scopus database.

Scopus AI is a search tool powered by generative AI (GenAI). It uses natural language processing, which means that instead of using keywords or Boolean operators, you can type your question, statement, or hypothesis in everyday language into the search box. Scopus AI analyzes the abstracts of articles and creates summaries from them, including references to the used documents.
