Springer Nature introduces Curie, an AI-powered scientific writing assistant

Springer Nature recently announced a new AI-powered in-house writing assistant to support researchers. The tool has been trained on scholarly literature that covers 447+ disciplines, encompasses over 2,000 specialized subjects, and incorporates feedback from more than 1 million revisions on papers—including those featured in esteemed Nature publications.

Studies indicate scientists who are non-native English speakers spend 51% more time writing papers on average. This disparity creates an imbalance in the research field, hindering the progression of knowledge and affecting the contribution of top-tier research from various parts of the world.

This underscores the trend towards creating LLMs tailored for particular uses with specialized domain knowledge.
