In an interview with the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF), Professor Mike Schäfer talks about the impact of generative AI tools like ChatGPT on the field of science communication. He says: "I think that generative AI – which includes but goes beyond ChatGPT – is a gamechanger for science communication, both for its practice and research on it". The interview is part of "Universe World", a bimonthly column about science communication and education projects from around the world, and can be found here.
