How does artificial intelligence affect the business context? A bibliometric analysis

We conducted a descriptive bibliometric analysis to examine scientific production, identify the most influential publications, and identify the most and least researched topics in four specific knowledge domains. We used a quantitative, descriptive, and correlational research approach to scientific production to carry out the analysis, which involved extracting 7,937 articles from the Web of Science and distributing them into three search equations. Using SciMAT v1.1.04 software, we processed the data and conducted a descriptive analysis of scientific production, enabling the creation of maps highlighting scientists with the most and least researched topics. The analysis of published articles, author performance, most productive journals, and most cited articles provided a detailed view of the dominant trends and approaches in the fields of Artificial Intelligence and business. The analysis showed that there is a significant evolution in the scholarly output, with themes such as "Value Creation", "Artificial Intelligence", "Business Intelligence", "E-Commerce", "Decision Making" and "Management" emerging as central in different periods, indicating their continued importance. Additionally, we note the inclusion of emerging themes like 'Customer Experience', 'Chatbots', 'Internet of Things', and 'Machine Learning', which reflect the dynamics and evolution of research concerns over time. The results of the analysis have significant implications for business policy and strategy formulation. Understanding emerging trends can help organizations make informed decisions and proactively adapt to changes in the artificial intelligence and sustainability landscape.
