By leveraging AI, businesses can enhance their environmental interaction, perform advanced analytics, and make sustainable and equitable decisions. At this point, AI is also recognized as a key driver in the advancement of green information technologies (Green IT). Green IT focuses on enabling organizations to increase productivity and efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. This study aims to identify the key research trends at the intersection of AI and Green IT and to conduct a systematic bibliometric analysis of the existing literature. Based on 246 articles retrieved from the Web of Science database (2010–2025), the study examines the most productive countries, influential journals, and thematic clusters to provide a strategic overview for future research. It was observed that AI significantly contributes to strategies such as energy efficiency, smart grid development, and climate crisis mitigation. Notably, this paper also highlights how the synergy between AI and Green IT can lay the foundation for energy-efficient and sustainable metaverse infrastructures, where immersive technologies and intelligent systems demand green and scalable computing solutions. As one of the few bibliometric studies on this emerging convergence, the paper offers strategic insights for both academia and industry to promote environmentally responsible AI-driven digital ecosystems.}, number={4}, publisher={Akademik Bilişim Araştırmaları Derneği}, organization={This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors.}
