00:00:00
so the AI battle for our research Souls
00:00:03
has started in Earnest and unless you've
00:00:06
been living under a rock you've probably
00:00:09
seen a lot of AI tools that promise you
00:00:12
to get rid of all your possible problems
00:00:15
with writing papers reading the
00:00:16
literature and so on so in this video I
00:00:19
want to review two very popular tools
00:00:22
jny Ai and paper P these are both
00:00:27
Fantastic Tools if you want to write
00:00:30
your text using Ai and I'm also going to
00:00:33
show you in this video how to use both
00:00:35
of them ethically so that you actually
00:00:37
avoid lism which is very important
00:00:39
because with both tools you do risk
00:00:42
being caught by turn it in or other
00:00:44
software and your text being flagged as
00:00:47
AI created or as plagiarism so we're
00:00:50
going to compare it's going to be a side
00:00:52
by side comparison um which of these two
00:00:55
tools is better and which of them is
00:00:58
better for you because they are both
00:01:01
different they have different features
00:01:03
and they're going to work better for
00:01:05
different people and different purposes
00:01:07
so let's Dive Right In let's get
00:01:10
[Music]
00:01:15
started if you're new here my name is m
00:01:17
kov and I run academic English now where
00:01:19
we help PhD students and researchers
00:01:21
write and publish research papers in top
00:01:24
journals in the field so we're going to
00:01:27
be comparing payer palal and Jenny AI um
00:01:30
they're very similar and both very good
00:01:32
writing tools so you might have been
00:01:34
wondering which of them is better which
00:01:36
of them you know really helps me to
00:01:39
write academically and avoid plagiarism
00:01:41
at the same time because that's a big
00:01:44
concern both of them make a big promise
00:01:47
that they they are basically the future
00:01:50
of academic writing and that they can
00:01:52
supercharge your writing so in this
00:01:54
video I want to dive a little bit deeper
00:01:55
and see how true those claims are now
00:01:58
mind you this is not going to be a full
00:02:01
in-depth review of each of those tools
00:02:03
I've got other videos on each of them
00:02:05
where I go into much more depth about
00:02:07
all the features but I want to more
00:02:09
compare what each tool offers so that
00:02:12
you can choose the best tool for you
00:02:14
okay so um let's Dive Right In and let's
00:02:17
start with um Jenny so you need to
00:02:19
create your free account Jenny is free
00:02:22
to start uh there's obviously a paid
00:02:24
plan as well but if you want to get
00:02:25
started for free I put um um a link
00:02:28
right below this um video and that you
00:02:32
can click on it will take you to Jenny
00:02:34
and if you want to get the paid plans um
00:02:36
you can use the coupon code Mar 20 and
00:02:40
it will give you a 20% off um on all
00:02:43
Jenny paay plans as well just for new
00:02:45
users that's important so Jenny is a
00:02:48
fully online tool which means like you
00:02:50
you can't use it with your traditional
00:02:53
text editors like Microsoft Word or
00:02:55
maybe you know Google Docs or um
00:02:58
whatever those kind of tools you can
00:03:00
only use it online on Jenny's um library
00:03:03
right on Jenny's website sorry now
00:03:05
PayPal um it's also free to start and
00:03:08
it's got um paid plans and um I'll put
00:03:11
the link um below and the coupon code to
00:03:14
um PayPal if you use that um link that
00:03:17
referral link you're going to get $10
00:03:20
off on PayPal as well which is a pretty
00:03:22
good deal so if you log in what I what I
00:03:25
wanted to mention is that PayPal you can
00:03:27
use it both online right and create a
00:03:30
web document or you can install an
00:03:33
msword add it right let me show you how
00:03:36
that works in
00:03:42
word once you've installed it you'll be
00:03:44
able to open paperpile um here and it
00:03:47
will open in a nice new window so I
00:03:50
think you know side by side comparison
00:03:52
number one I think a huge advantage of
00:03:54
PayPal is that it works with Microsoft
00:03:57
Word and Jenny only work
00:04:00
um online you can export text at the end
00:04:04
to word for example or to latex or
00:04:07
whatever other software you're working
00:04:08
with but I think just right off the bat
00:04:11
a huge Advantage for me is that I can
00:04:14
just continue using my traditional
00:04:16
software use Zorro for example for
00:04:19
referencing as I've always been you
00:04:21
might already have text that you've
00:04:23
written in Microsoft Word so you can
00:04:25
just you know plug in paperpile and
00:04:27
continue using um word which I think is
00:04:30
a huge Advantage right so I think in
00:04:32
here uh PayPal wins slightly now how do
00:04:36
you start writing documents it's pretty
00:04:38
simple you just click on new document in
00:04:40
here and you start with Jenny you start
00:04:43
with a prompt right and the more detail
00:04:46
The Prompt the better answer you're
00:04:48
going to get right and it will create an
00:04:51
outline um for you as well which I think
00:04:53
is great okay uh so I'm not going to
00:04:55
write out the prompt um right now but I
00:04:58
I already have um in
00:05:00
here and it's created this outline for
00:05:04
me basically right which is is pretty
00:05:07
accurate uh to what I want and it's a
00:05:09
great start I think you know a lot of us
00:05:12
often just get stuck at the writing
00:05:14
stage and we you know we kind of don't
00:05:17
know how to even um structure our text
00:05:20
and what should be written so I think
00:05:22
this can give you um this can speed up
00:05:25
the process because you avoid the blank
00:05:27
page syndrome and you know you've got
00:05:29
the major sections and then you can dive
00:05:31
in and start writing on those sections
00:05:33
so I think it helps you to overcome that
00:05:35
first um hdle so I think you know points
00:05:38
to Jenny um for this and being able to
00:05:41
do that with paperpile you can also um
00:05:45
generate things so it's got this feature
00:05:46
called templates and it can generate
00:05:49
outlines of different things for you so
00:05:50
it can be a research article case report
00:05:53
essay statement of purpose can also
00:05:56
generate abstract and stuff like this
00:05:58
now I think the disadvantage of PayPal
00:06:01
is that you can't really generate for
00:06:04
example literature review right it's
00:06:05
just limited to these things so if
00:06:07
you're writing Also let's say you're
00:06:09
writing a thesis and you want to
00:06:11
generate a chapter an outline of a
00:06:14
chapter of your PhD thesis like the
00:06:15
introduction chapter you can't do it
00:06:18
with um paperpile it's just limited to
00:06:20
the outlines that they have here now on
00:06:23
the flip side I think the advantage of
00:06:25
this is that you don't have to write a
00:06:28
really good prompt right and that can
00:06:30
sometimes be difficult because Jenny
00:06:32
will the output that Jenny gives you and
00:06:35
the outline that that she gives you will
00:06:37
only be as good as the prompt that
00:06:40
you've given it right but if you don't
00:06:41
know how to write that prompt then
00:06:43
you're going to get worse output right
00:06:45
so let's say if I was to um select a
00:06:48
research article in here okay I can
00:06:51
select which section which is which is
00:06:53
really nice right uh cuz you will be
00:06:56
focusing on specific sections right so
00:06:58
we can select the introduction
00:07:00
now a great thing about it I think is
00:07:02
that it tries to tailor it to specific
00:07:06
fields of study now at the same time
00:07:08
this is a big disadvantage why because
00:07:12
it's just limited to physical sciences
00:07:14
life sciences and Medicine well what
00:07:16
about if you're in social sciences
00:07:18
broadly speaking what about if in you're
00:07:20
in Humanities and arts right so it's
00:07:22
very limited in terms of you know kind
00:07:25
of which fields of study um are allowed
00:07:28
um in here here which I think is you
00:07:31
know for me for example I'm in social
00:07:33
sciences I'm in education I wouldn't
00:07:34
really be able to do it well I can still
00:07:36
generate an outline but it won't be as
00:07:39
accurate for me so I think people at
00:07:41
PayPal if you're listening to it please
00:07:43
add other fields of study not everybody
00:07:45
is in physical medical sciences and and
00:07:48
Life Sciences right and then obviously
00:07:51
you need to describe your study um a
00:07:53
little bit so you probably want to give
00:07:54
it a name what's the purpose of the
00:07:56
study and and so on right uh so you
00:07:58
describe it here and then you would
00:08:00
click on generate so in here I would say
00:08:04
my personal preference Jenny wins here
00:08:07
um a little bit not by much but it does
00:08:09
win because it does have more
00:08:11
versatility you can just basically
00:08:13
generate any sort of outline you wish
00:08:16
for the text not just limited to let's
00:08:19
say a section of a research paper and
00:08:21
not just limited to certain Fields like
00:08:24
it is with paper P so um what what else
00:08:28
um Can generate I and paperpile do um
00:08:32
I'll talk about a big difference which
00:08:34
with jny AI is referencing and that's I
00:08:37
think a great feature of J so you can
00:08:40
see I've inserted some references um in
00:08:42
here the way you do that is you
00:08:44
basically uh type um at okay so I'm just
00:08:48
going to delete this reference and I'm
00:08:52
going to type at and what Jenny is going
00:08:55
to do is use the the available academic
00:08:58
databases to search for articles with
00:09:02
these keywords so you can see that it
00:09:04
already knows what keywords to use based
00:09:06
on the sentence that you've written
00:09:08
right you could obviously type in other
00:09:10
keywords if you wanted to if you think
00:09:12
those aren't accurate and then you can
00:09:14
scroll through these articles and you
00:09:17
know view them in a new tab so that you
00:09:20
can actually read that article and check
00:09:22
if the reference is correct or if you
00:09:23
already know that article you've read it
00:09:26
you know that it will be a good fit for
00:09:28
this then you just click on ADD citation
00:09:30
and it will add that citation here which
00:09:32
I think is a fabulous fabulous tools
00:09:35
because like how often have you caught
00:09:37
yourself just like writing a text and
00:09:39
you kind of go like well what's the
00:09:41
reference here I know I've read it
00:09:43
somewhere but where and you can't find
00:09:46
it anymore because you've got like 150
00:09:48
texts right or maybe you know you know
00:09:51
it's kind of a a fact but you don't have
00:09:53
that reference in your in your reference
00:09:55
management right so this is a fabulous
00:09:58
tool like really great job and people at
00:10:00
gen AI I think this is this is amazing
00:10:03
right um it can you can also upload text
00:10:07
to your library okay so it's got this
00:10:09
library in here uh where you can click
00:10:12
on the plus sign um and upload um your
00:10:15
own sources either either in the PDF um
00:10:18
format right um so if you click on
00:10:22
upload sources um and you can select
00:10:25
PDFs or you could import a bib text file
00:10:28
from um Zorro where you would go to
00:10:30
Zorro you would um select um which text
00:10:34
you want to export you would right click
00:10:36
and Export items as a bip text and then
00:10:40
uh pop that into to um the library in
00:10:43
Jenny which I think is fantastic because
00:10:45
what what this allows you to do really
00:10:47
is to you know is to have everything in
00:10:49
one place you know it's not like writing
00:10:50
in Microsoft Word where you're writing
00:10:52
here but everything like your text are
00:10:54
somewhere else you've got a reference
00:10:56
manager and all that like Jenny is
00:10:58
trying to combine that and I think it
00:10:59
does a really good job so um points to
00:11:02
Jenny here um I think it's a clear
00:11:04
winner uh PayPal cannot um do it but of
00:11:09
course since it's a word plugin you can
00:11:11
just use zro or manday or end note or
00:11:14
whatever other reference manager you're
00:11:16
doing so not not a big deal but payp
00:11:19
does not have this um feature now um
00:11:23
both of these um tools also have an AI
00:11:27
chat so what this allows you to do is
00:11:29
it's basically like an AI assistant so
00:11:32
imagine like you just have a colleague
00:11:35
sitting next to you 24/7 who you know
00:11:39
has all the internet knowledge in their
00:11:41
head and you can just ask them any
00:11:42
questions and they spit out the answers
00:11:44
in five seconds and most of those
00:11:46
answers are accurate that's that's
00:11:47
pretty cool right so that's basically
00:11:49
the AI assistant called ask Jenny that
00:11:52
Jenny um has right and I think it's you
00:11:56
know it's much more accurate than a lot
00:11:57
of other AI assistants that I've seen um
00:12:00
especially for example something like um
00:12:02
chat GPT which tends to just kind of
00:12:04
like invent stuff and has what are
00:12:07
called hallucinations and it invents
00:12:09
references and all that kind of stuff um
00:12:11
Jenny does not do that I think it's
00:12:13
pretty accurate obviously still as a
00:12:15
researcher you have to use your own
00:12:17
knowledge and your own skills to be able
00:12:20
to validate whether these answers make
00:12:23
sense or not but I think it's a great
00:12:25
tool to have um in here you can see I um
00:12:28
I asked it a question questions right uh
00:12:30
so for example you know you're writing
00:12:32
the literature review and you're like
00:12:33
okay what in this section I'm talking
00:12:36
about topic X well what are some areas
00:12:39
within topic X that researchers have
00:12:43
already studied right you can ask that
00:12:45
question to Jenny and Jenny will give
00:12:46
you a great answer right and since I
00:12:49
know the topic I know these references
00:12:51
they actually exist uh and you know it's
00:12:54
a pretty accurate answer so you can then
00:12:57
you know the great thing that you can do
00:12:59
of course is you could take this pop it
00:13:02
into your outline into a section so that
00:13:05
you have a more accurate outline right
00:13:07
or you could click on those references
00:13:10
in here to continue reading those texts
00:13:14
further and again everything is kind of
00:13:16
in one place which I really like so
00:13:18
you've got the the text editor and at
00:13:20
the same time you're you know you can be
00:13:22
chatting with um AI getting answers that
00:13:25
you can use to continue writing your
00:13:27
text you don't have to go to another
00:13:28
website like CH GPT for example now
00:13:31
while PayPal you know does have the same
00:13:35
um feature um it's called
00:13:38
brainstorm it's much more limited right
00:13:42
I've I've tested it several times and
00:13:45
you know while it does on general
00:13:48
questions so like I think it's it's more
00:13:50
it's better for like asking general
00:13:51
advice like how should I approach my
00:13:53
professor to propose a research idea
00:13:55
those kind of things right um when it
00:13:58
comes to actual like literature review
00:14:01
output for example it performs much
00:14:04
worse than Jenny AI in in my tests it
00:14:07
certainly doesn't give you accurate
00:14:09
references it doesn't give you any
00:14:10
references for that matter um when I try
00:14:13
to generate um an outline for a
00:14:15
literature review on a certain topic of
00:14:17
a literature review chapter it gave me a
00:14:20
pretty bad answer so I don't think it's
00:14:22
that good it's it's better perhaps for
00:14:24
those as I said brainstorming general
00:14:27
questions but nothing too in depth so
00:14:30
again I think points for Jenny I think
00:14:32
this works much better and really kudos
00:14:34
for integrating references here and I
00:14:37
think you know since it can read your
00:14:39
PDFs in your library the more PDFs you
00:14:41
upload to your library the better
00:14:44
answers Jenny will actually give you so
00:14:47
I think you know this is clear clear
00:14:49
winner here now um I'll just kind of
00:14:53
quickly go over a bunch of features that
00:14:56
are pretty much the same in Jenny and
00:14:57
paperpile and these these have to do
00:14:59
with kind of rewriting your text okay so
00:15:03
if you've written a text and you select
00:15:06
it right you can click on AI commands
00:15:08
and there are a couple of features which
00:15:10
are pretty much the same in jny Ai and
00:15:13
paperpile okay um so it's improving the
00:15:15
fluency of your writing paraphrasing
00:15:18
simplifying a text making it longer
00:15:21
which I think is a is a great um little
00:15:24
hack when you get stuck and maybe you've
00:15:25
written a sentence or two but you don't
00:15:27
know how to expand it right Jenny Ai and
00:15:30
paper P can help you with that they can
00:15:32
translate summarize right an opposing
00:15:34
argument and you'll see um it's pretty
00:15:37
much um it's very similar um in here so
00:15:40
if you go to the rewrite you can
00:15:42
paraphrase you can make it shorter you
00:15:45
can make it more academic or you can
00:15:47
also find synonyms of words so similar
00:15:50
features but I think Jenny AI is the
00:15:53
winner here it's got a few more things
00:15:56
uh I think that it allows you to do like
00:15:57
make longer for example overall improve
00:16:01
the fluency which um you know is an
00:16:04
advantage over PayPal paperpile uh paper
00:16:07
does allow you to translate um as well
00:16:10
um you would have to have text um in
00:16:12
your um editor in here now I'm going to
00:16:17
show you one feature where I think
00:16:19
PayPal truly truly excels and is much
00:16:23
better than Jenny Ai and then I show you
00:16:26
at the end of this video another feature
00:16:28
of Jenny AI where I think Jenny excels
00:16:31
but at the same time it's probably the
00:16:33
biggest problem um with Jenny AI as well
00:16:36
so stick around until the end so um I've
00:16:39
just opened a text um in here because
00:16:41
for it to for paperple to really do its
00:16:44
magic you already want to have some sort
00:16:46
of a text um written okay uh now what is
00:16:51
the the feature that I think really
00:16:54
makes it stand out um in comparison to
00:16:56
Jenny is you know it's abil to scan the
00:16:59
whole text and then suggest specific
00:17:03
improvements for that particular text
00:17:05
that you've been writing so I think this
00:17:06
is fantastic if you already have text
00:17:09
that you've you've generated right or um
00:17:12
parts of uh text so you can see you know
00:17:14
um there are 34 37 sentences just
00:17:17
continuing to scan um texts right and
00:17:20
it's suggesting things under different
00:17:23
headings right so I've got spelling um
00:17:25
possessives and punctuations
00:17:27
capitalization spelling the Terina error
00:17:30
spelling right so it's basically like
00:17:32
grammarly but on AI steroids and I think
00:17:36
this is this is a huge Advantage for
00:17:39
people most of us who have already
00:17:41
written something and they want to get
00:17:44
it checked really quickly so to me paper
00:17:48
Paul in this feature clear winner um if
00:17:51
jny AI could Implement something similar
00:17:53
and especially with the word plug-in I
00:17:56
think J A would be unbeatable are these
00:17:59
are all these suggestions accurate No so
00:18:03
you know if you've ever wondered can AI
00:18:06
just completely replace like good old
00:18:08
editing and working with professionals
00:18:11
to help you to write an excellent thesis
00:18:13
of papers no U because you know for
00:18:16
example this suggestion here that it
00:18:18
gives me that I B shouldn't be
00:18:20
capitalized that's not accurate because
00:18:23
all content words are typically
00:18:26
capitalized is it true that n shouldn't
00:18:28
be capitalized yes that's true right uh
00:18:31
so you still have to kind of review it
00:18:34
um many of those suggestions will be
00:18:37
correct but not all of them right so you
00:18:39
still have to review it nevertheless I
00:18:41
think this is a fantastic feature to
00:18:43
scan your text and correct most of the
00:18:46
sort of most obvious mistakes okay so
00:18:50
great job paper paw um here now I told
00:18:53
you that I would now show you a feature
00:18:56
of jny AI where I think jny AI truly
00:18:58
exist C but at the same time it's
00:19:01
actually a big problem of gen AI what do
00:19:05
I mean by that what you can see here ji
00:19:08
suggested how I should continue writing
00:19:10
this sentence and I can accept it right
00:19:13
and then I can you know I can continue
00:19:24
writing and Jenny will just suggest
00:19:27
sentences to me which I think is is
00:19:30
brilliant these sentences are actually
00:19:32
pretty good they make
00:19:33
sense the text actually flows pretty
00:19:36
well so I think it's a really cool
00:19:38
feature and you know it's a clear winner
00:19:40
over paperpile but at the same time this
00:19:43
is very problematic because you're using
00:19:46
AI to write a text for you now if you go
00:19:49
to any good journals recommendations for
00:19:53
AI use what you will find is that AI
00:19:55
should be used to improve the
00:19:57
readability of your text that means AI
00:20:00
should be used in the same sense that
00:20:03
proof reading services are used for
00:20:05
example to improve your grammar uh to
00:20:07
improve the flow of your text right the
00:20:09
structure of paragraphs to correct any
00:20:12
mistakes with language and so on but it
00:20:15
can be used to generate text so this is
00:20:18
a great feature but at the same time I
00:20:20
think it's very problematic because if
00:20:22
you're not careful you're going to start
00:20:24
generating lots of texts that are that
00:20:26
come up as plagiarized or AI generat so
00:20:29
I'd be very very careful with accepting
00:20:33
um Jenny's suggestions without rewriting
00:20:35
them yourself especially that Jenny
00:20:39
doesn't have a plagiarism Checker it
00:20:41
used to have a plagiarism Checker but
00:20:42
they got rid of it right uh which makes
00:20:46
the this feature particularly even more
00:20:48
problematic so if you're worried about
00:20:51
you know the use of AI I think PayPal
00:20:54
with just using it for you know for
00:20:56
scanning your text and correct correting
00:20:59
your uh mistakes with the language or
00:21:01
consistency is much safer this is not
00:21:03
going to lead to plagiarism if you're
00:21:05
using Genny AI please make sure that you
00:21:08
don't just accept all the sentences that
00:21:11
she gives you and treat them as your own
00:21:13
cuz they're not your own they were
00:21:14
generated by Jenny Ai and on that note
00:21:18
one last feature that I think is really
00:21:20
important and I kind of hinted on it
00:21:22
plagiarism Checker unfortunately Jenny
00:21:24
and I got rid of it payper palal does
00:21:27
have a plagiarism checker it's only
00:21:29
available on the on the website um in
00:21:31
here so it's plagiarism check right you
00:21:35
can also I think see it uh here if you
00:21:37
go to checks and then you click on
00:21:39
plagiarism Checker it will take you
00:21:41
there and um it's um you know limited
00:21:46
depending on the plan that that you've
00:21:47
got limited to 7,000 words so you might
00:21:50
have to cut your text you know into
00:21:52
shorter documents um it's in part
00:21:54
partnership with tet in which is a
00:21:56
really good plagiarism detector used by
00:21:58
most universities many journals and so
00:22:00
on so I think this is a great um feature
00:22:03
to have it it's a shame I think that
00:22:05
Jenny AI uh took it out surely they
00:22:07
could partner with turn it in as well
00:22:09
and have that feature build in here when
00:22:11
it's sort of as you're writing it in the
00:22:15
editor um you know at the same time it
00:22:17
shows you what might come up as
00:22:19
plagiarism that would really help
00:22:21
because I think this feature of Jenny AI
00:22:24
suggesting sentences for you as much as
00:22:27
I think it's it's scarily accurate and
00:22:30
really good it might lead to a lot of
00:22:32
plagiarism if you're not careful so
00:22:34
that's it that was a comparison between
00:22:36
