Is GenAI the new GSRA replacement?
Seth Guikema, Professor, Civil & Environmental Engineering and Industrial & Operations Engineering, University of Michigan

Guikema questions whether GenAI can formulate a mathematical model, solve it, and subsequently write a paper about that model. In this tutorial, he describes his experience in attempting to push the boundaries of currently publicly available GenAI to write a journal paper from scratch and to have GenAI formulate, solve, and write about research in game theory. Additionally, he explores whether this endeavor was successful, and consider the implications for individuals like themselves who serve as journal editors, and reflect on the broader implications for the future of research.
