TL;DR

An open-source AI called OpenScholar combines a language model with a 45-million-open-access-article database to perform literature reviews and cite sources directly, reducing hallucinations and allowing local deployment at a fraction of the cost of commercial deep-research tools; it’s powerful but may miss representative papers and is limited by its data coverage.
