The premise
Research blogging extends impact beyond journals; AI lowers the writing barrier so researchers blog more.
What AI does well here
- Use AI to draft accessible-language posts from technical papers
- Maintain researcher voice and substantive accuracy
- Generate audience-specific variants (lay readers, practitioners, journalists)
- Track engagement to refine approach
What AI cannot do
- Substitute AI for the substantive insight only the researcher has
- Replace genuine engagement with public
- Make every paper bloggable
