The tools on this page can help you by generating language from prompts. These tools are built of large language models (LLM).
According to MIT, LLMs are "massive neural networks that can generate human-like text, from poetry to programming code. Trained used troves of internet data, these machine-learning models take a small bit of input text and then predict the text that is likely to come next."
This video from Google does a good job of describing LLMs and how we can use them. It is important to note that Google has its own LLM in Beta called Bard.
Here are just a few examples of the ways people have used LLM tools in the scholarly setting*:
