Revolutionizing Research: AI Tools for Automating Literature Reviews and Systematic Synthesis in Indonesia
In the rapidly evolving landscape of academic research, the sheer volume of published literature can be overwhelming. Researchers, particularly in Indonesia, often spend countless hours sifting through studies, identifying relevant information, and meticulously synthesizing findings. However, the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is set to revolutionize this process, offering powerful tools to automate and streamline literature reviews and systematic synthesis.
This article explores the transformative potential of AI in research, highlighting key tools and their applications for Indonesian academics aiming for greater efficiency, accuracy, and depth in their work.
The Challenge: A Deluge of Data
Traditional literature reviews and systematic syntheses are labor-intensive and time-consuming. Researchers must:
- Identify relevant databases and keywords: This initial step can miss crucial studies if not executed comprehensively.
- Screen titles and abstracts: Hundreds, if not thousands, of papers often need to be reviewed to identify those meeting inclusion criteria.
- Full-text review: Selected papers are then
