Abstract

This study aims to create a holistic viewpoint by concentrating on two dynamic areas of artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship with bibliometric analysis. The concept of artificial intelligence, which is constantly heard as the digital world gradually penetrates our lives, and entrepreneurship, which is referred to as the atomic element of the economic infrastructure, are addressed in the same pot with this research. The attitude of both areas against varying circumstances constitutes the essential basis of this examination. The view that the effectiveness in the areas can be increased with the synergy to be created between the two focuses is supported. With this intention, the study commences with an informative literature section, where the introductory elements of the areas are conveyed. Afterward, it tries to clarify why these zones need to be examined together. Following this, a bibliometric analysis study, frequently used to bring unfamiliar kinds of literature jointly, is conducted using data obtained from the Web of Science database and subjected to various analyses. In the last stage, the study is completed by examining these outputs and analyzes. As a result, conclusions support “the duo” can be investigated jointly. The study contributes to the idea that artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship are wings working in synchrony for the requirement of success.

Dinamizmin Kanatlarını Birleştirmek: Yapay Zekâ ve Girişimcilik Alanlarının Bibliyometrik Analizi

Abstract

Bu çalışma yapay zekâ ve girişimcilik gibi iki dinamik alana bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi ile odaklanarak bütünsel bir bakış açısı oluşturmayı hedeflemektedir. Dijital dünyanın hayatlara gün geçtikçe nüfuz etmesiyle sıklıkla duymaya başlanılan yapay zekâ kavramı ile ekonomik altyapının atomik unsuru olarak anılan girişimcilik, bu araştırma ile aynı pota içerisinde ele alınacaktır. Her iki alanın da değişken durumlarla olan ilişki biçimi bu çalışmanın temel dayanak noktasını oluşturmaktadır. İki odak arasında oluşturulabilecek sinerji ile alanlardaki etkinliğin artırılabileceği önerisi desteklenmektedir. Bu niyetle çalışma bilgilendirici literatür kısmıyla başlamakta, alanlara ait temel unsurlar aktarılmakta ve bu alanların neden birlikte irdelenmeye gerek duyulduğu açıklanmaya çalışılmaktadır. İkinci bölümde farklı literatürleri bir araya getirmede sıklıkla kullanılan bibliyometrik analiz çalışması ile Web of Science veri tabanı üzerinden çekilen veriler çeşitli analizlere tabi tutulmuştur. Son aşamada da bu çıktıların ve analizlerin irdelenmesi ile çalışma tamamlanmıştır. Netice itibariyle iki alanın ortak bir maksatla ele alınabileceği fikrini destekleyecek bulgular elde edilmiştir. Böylelikle başarıya erişimde yapay zekâ ile girişimcilik olgusunun senkronize çalışması gereken kanatlar olması gerektiği fikrine katkı sunulmuştur.
