A Systematic Review on The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Writing

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has started making its impact in the education field recently. Although Artificial Intelligence (AI) has long existed in other fields such as medicine, engineering, journalism, and forensic analysis, it has only made its impact in the education field after the introduction of ChatGPT at the end of November 2022.  Generative AI is seen as a tool that can assist teachers and students in the field of academics such as generating ideas, evaluating essays, storytelling, and providing feedback.  It has even been considered as the co-author in students’ manuscripts and essays.  However, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is still under study in the field of writing as it has been introduced recently.  Based on the gap indicating the rare usage of AI in writing, this study hopes to enlighten researchers, educators, and application developers to focus on developing AI applications for writing.  This is done by providing a systematic review on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in writing over the last 10 years.
