Abstract
In a context in which large amounts of data and information for the generation of knowledge or intelligence, in combination with technological development and the design of computer programs and applications, this research is contextualized. Objectives: a) to identify and to examine those scientific documents related to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Information Science (ICI included in the Scopus database: b) to explore Latin American participation in these disciplines. Method: First approach documentary study that consisted of searching and retrieving information in the Scopus database and included the period from 1980 to April 9, 2020. Subsequently, the results, discussion and conclusions were drafted. Results: 184 investigations were retrieved and analyzed, of which the author and the publication with the highest number of citations are B. Hjørland and Journal of Documentation. In addition, the participation of three Latin American countries was identified: Brazil, Mexico and Cuba. Discussion: Conceptually there are coincidences, AI and IC require basic elements such as data, information and technologies. Both areas of knowledge, are mutually supportive and are tools of other disciplines. Conclusions: With the computer tools it is possible to analyze the most cited publications. In addition, with other elements such as the titles of the articles and conferences of the records retrieved from the Scopus database, it is feasible to carry out the analysis of the written discourse and identify the topics covered in different periods, thus obtaining a thematic map.
