You may not of heard about the so called Wayback Machine. The Wayback Machine is a free digital archive created by the Internet Archive. It allows users to view older versions of websites and explore how webpages looked in the past. Launched in 2001, it helps researchers, students, and internet users preserve and discover online history.
Look at it using the link below.

This examines one of the ways I use AI to analyse data I have defined in a Google Blog Post. The Google Blog Post becomes one of my data repositories that my ChatGPT Command can access. Because a Google Blog Post has its own unique URL this allows you to use the contents of the blog to drive any further analysis that you want to undertake by including the URL in a ChatGPT Command. A URL is a Uniform Resource Locator which is a unique location on the internet whereby the data at this location can be incorporated in any AI ChatGPT Command.
So here I want to look at how I used ChatGPT to help me further research Published Papers on AI using a List of Organisations that publish Digital Research Papers that I listed on my dmbpublishing.blogspot.com DP26013 Blog Post.
I suggest you take a look at this post first by following this link below :- https://dmbpublishing.blogspot.com/2026/10/dp26013-research-paper-sources-v01.html
I then used this ChatGPT Command below to further analyse the published list in this DP26013 Blog Post.
ChatGPT Command
Can you access https://dmbpublishing.blogspot.com/2026/10/dp26013-research-paper-sources-v01.html and determine the number of documents relating to AI and then rank them based on the most first and least last. Do not use tables.
ChatGPT Response
Below is a version without tables. It ranks 10 AI research papers from most to least useful for a broad study of artificial intelligence, considering relevance, academic credibility, research value, and practical usefulness.
The starting point is your original blog post, DP26013 Research Paper Sources V01, which lists research platforms for finding academic publications.
Original source: DMB Publishing – DP26013 Research Paper Sources V01
Important distinction: The following is a selection of 10 research papers, not a count of all AI-related documents available through the 30 platforms in your original source list. The ranking is an assessment of their usefulness, not an official academic league table.

3. Best research platforms from your original source list
Your blog post lists 30 research platforms. For locating additional AI papers, I would prioritise the following eight.
1. arXiv
Official website: arXiv
Best for finding recent research in artificial intelligence, machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision.
2. Semantic Scholar
Official website: Semantic Scholar
Useful for discovering related papers, tracking citations, identifying authors, and exploring connections between research publications.
3. CORE
Official website: CORE
Useful for finding open-access research papers from institutional repositories and other academic sources.
4. Directory of Open Access Journals
Official website: DOAJ
Useful for identifying open-access academic journals and articles.
5. Zenodo
Official website: Zenodo
Useful for finding research outputs, datasets, software, and supplementary materials.
6. OpenAIRE
Official website: OpenAIRE
Useful for discovering open research publications and associated datasets.
7. ScienceOpen
Official website: ScienceOpen
Useful for discovering scholarly publications and exploring connections between research topics.
8. ResearchGate
Official website: ResearchGate
Useful for locating researchers, exploring their publications, and sometimes finding author-shared full texts.
My recommendation: Start with arXiv, Semantic Scholar, and CORE. Then verify important findings against the published versions of papers wherever possible.
Remember that a paper being available online does not automatically mean it has undergone peer review. Check each paper’s publication status before treating it as an established academic source.
4. Final assessment
This selection contains 10 individual AI research papers, ranked by my assessment of their usefulness for a broad AI research project.
The highest-priority subjects are:
• AI fundamentals: Large language models and generative AI.
• AI reliability: Hallucinations, factual accuracy, and evaluation.
• AI-assisted research: Scientific literature retrieval and synthesis.
• AI autonomy: Agentic reasoning and automated scientific research.
• AI safety: Alignment and unintended behavioural changes.
The most useful starting point is A Survey of Large Language Models, followed by the generative AI survey and the papers on hallucinations and AI-assisted research.
A final clarification: The 10 papers above are a selected bibliography, not an exhaustive search of all 30 platforms. The original blog post does not establish how many AI-related documents exist across those services, so the total number of AI-related documents remains undetermined.
