Summary

In this episode, Lisa and Tom take on a series of objections and concerns that Dr. Susanne Friese has heard repeatedly over the past month in conversations with researchers.

Can I trust a tool if I don’t know what it was trained on?
If there are no citations, is it plagiarism?
If a colleague arrives at a different result, we can talk it through. But with an AI assistant, I cannot do this.And if I have to check everything anyway, what’s the point?

These are just some of the questions Lisa and Tom explore in this wide-ranging conversation about the place of generative AI in qualitative research.

If you’ve ever felt hesitant, skeptical, or just plain curious about AI’s role in your research process—this episode is for you.
