Abstract

This paper aims to map and thematically present the existing literature on the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI), identity, and AI Nationalism, following a scoping review approach. A systematic search was conducted across the Scopus, Web of Science, ACM Digital Library, and Google Scholar databases to identify relevant studies. The selected studies, published between 2020-2025, focus on the impact of AI on identity and geopolitics, resulting in six papers included in the final synthesis. The analyzed studies employed various methods, including conceptual, qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods approaches. Data extracted from each study included author, publication year, objectives, methodology, and key findings. The results were synthesized thematically, identifying the paradoxical role of AI as both a unifying force for human identity and a driver of nationalist competition. This review concludes that a culturally aware and inclusive approach to AI governance is necessary to navigate the complexities of the digital era responsibly.

Bahasa Abstract

Makalah ini bertujuan untuk memetakan dan menyajikan secara tematik literatur yang ada tentang persimpangan antara Kecerdasan Buatan (AI), identitas, dan Nasionalisme AI, dengan mengikuti pendekatan tinjauan pustaka lingkup (scoping review). Pencarian sistematis dilakukan pada basis data Scopus, Web of Science, ACM Digital Library, dan Google Scholar untuk mengidentifikasi studi yang relevan. Hasil studi terpilih yang diterbitkan antara tahun 2020-2025 berfokus pada dampak AI terhadap identitas dan geopolitik, menghasilkan enam makalah yang disertakan dalam sintesis akhir. Studi yang dianalisis menggunakan berbagai metode, termasuk pendekatan konseptual, kualitatif, kuantitatif, dan metode campuran. Data yang diekstraksi dari setiap penelitian mencakup penulis, tahun publikasi, tujuan, metodologi, dan temuan utama. Hasilnya disintesis secara tematik, mengidentifikasi peran paradoksal AI sebagai kekuatan pemersatu identitas kemanusiaan sekaligus pendorong kompetisi nasionalis. Tinjauan ini menyimpulkan perlunya pendekatan tata kelola AI yang inklusif dan sadar budaya untuk menavigasi kompleksitas era digital secara bertanggung jawab.
