AI Tools for Systematic Reviews and Evidence Synthesis Online

Systematic reviews require a rigorous and systematic approach to reviewing existing literature and discovering new knowledge. As the number of scholarly publications rapidly increases across all disciplines, AI tools hold promise for keeping pace with the expanding literature. Yet, with the growing number of AI tools available for research assistance, choosing the right tool for the systematic review process has become challenging. Additionally, not all AI tools marketed as "research assistants" for evidence synthesis are as effective as they claim to be. Researchers found that selecting the right tools and applying them at the appropriate stages of the review process is crucial for providing needed support.

This presentation will explain how AI tools work and discuss their practical use in the systematic review process. Topics include:

AI tools for systematic reviews and their effectiveness
Evaluating methods for AI tools
Use cases for using AI tools in the systematic review process

Participants are encouraged to bring their own use cases to share with the group.
