Research on the Environmental Impacts of Artificial Intelligence — Gaps and Opportunities

Search Technology, Inc. will conduct a bibliometric analysis of publications, citations, and keywords to identify trends and gaps in research on the environmental impact of artificial intelligence. The analysis will identify the leading research players, prominent research topics, in what countries the research is concentrated, and plot overall trends. Based on those findings, the analysis will explore the interconnections of research through network analyses and mapping. The research seeks to answer questions such as (1) how do the researchers interconnect, (2) what topics are leading research organizations focusing on, how are topics intersecting and converging, and what trends are emerging? The analysis will rely on Web of Science for bibliometric data.
