Exploring Current Trends in Artificial Intelligence Technology An Extensive Review

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly pervasive across various domains, including smartphones, social media platforms, search engines, and autonomous vehicles, among others. This study undertakes a scoping review of the current landscape of AI technologies, following the PRISMA framework, with the aim of identifying the most advanced technologies utilized in different domains of AI research. Three reputable journals within the artificial intelligence and machine learning domain, namely the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, the Journal of Machine Learning Research, and Machine Learning, were selected for this review. Articles published in 2022 were scrutinized against certain criteria: the technology must be tested against comparable solutions, employ commonly approved or well-justified datasets, and demonstrate improvements over comparable solutions. A crucial aspect of technology development identified in this review is the processing and exploitation of data collected from diverse sources. Given the highly unstructured nature of data, technological solutions should minimize the need for manual intervention by humans. The review indicates that creating labeled datasets is a labor-intensive process, leading to increased research focus on solutions leveraging unsupervised or semi-supervised learning technologies. Efficient updating of learning algorithms and the interpretability of predictions emerge as key considerations in the development of AI technologies. Moreover, in real-world applications, ensuring safety and providing explainable predictions are imperative before widespread adoption can be achieved. Thus, this review underscores the importance of addressing these factors to facilitate the responsible and effective integration of AI technologies into various domains.
