A case study in artificial intelligence-assisted qualitative analysis: The use of ChatGPT prompts with UNESCO texts

Authors

Keywords:

qualitative analysis, artificial intelligence, ChatGPT, prompts, UNESCO, education

Abstract

This article presents the practical application of a range of ChatGPT 3.5 prompts in the qualitative analysis of United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and United Nations (UN) reports and blogs on ethics, education and artificial intelligence, giving details of the text structure and the results yielded. The prompts were designed to extract relevant information, identify patterns and trends, and facilitate the understanding and processing of the data. Through this exploratory study, we endeavor to show their usefulness as a tool for analyzing academic and research texts. The combination of approaches, bringing together both the advantages of AI and human research experience, reveals the importance of comprehensive education for researchers on scientific integrity and ethics in research in general and in qualitative research in particular, in order both to reap the benefits of AI with confidence in its scientific validity and to avoid its pitfalls through rigor and sound judgement.
