Synergistic review of automation impact of big data, AI, and ML in current data transformative era

preprint OA: closed CC-BY-4.0

Abstract

The convergence of automation, big data analytics (BDA), artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) has ushered in a new era of technological advancement, reshaping industries, and societies worldwide. This review research work delves into the transformative impact of these technologies, focusing on their applications across various sectors. The study covers six key sectors: healthcare, banking, finance, retail, real estate, and agriculture, highlighting how these industries leverage automated systems and data analytics to enhance operations, manage risks, and improve decision-making processes. Drawing results from over 1,000 research papers and categorizing them into 100 key studies specifics, this survey-based review underscores the critical role of big data in enabling predictive analytics, improving outcomes, and driving innovation across sectors. The review research work explores how industries utilize vast data volumes from diverse sources to derive actionable insights, forecast trends, and optimize processes. Key applications included in the review are from the domains of disease prediction and electronic health record management in healthcare , fraud detection and credit risk assessment in banking and finance, consumer behavior analysis and inventory optimization in retail, market trend forecasting in real estate, and disaster risk management in agriculture. The paper also discusses the challenges including data quality, scalability, and privacy paving way towards future directions of big data analytics, emphasizing the need for machine-independent solutions, data security, and ethical considerations in the evolving landscape of data-driven decision-making.

Machine dependency in Big Data In this section, the research work utilizes different domains which have Machine Dependency in Big data 2.1 Machine dependency in Healthcare These studies demonstrate a significant reliance on machine learning, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics for predictive 16 modeling, risk assessment, and decision-making in healthcare. They employ deep learning, natural language processing, and advanced data processing systems to automate complex tasks such as electronic health record analysis, disease prediction, and healthcare supply chain management ( Figure 1 ). 17 Machine independence in healthcare refers to the capacity of healthcare systems 18 to operate effectively without dependence on specific hardware or software platforms. This enhances system flexibility, scalability, and longevity by mitigating vendor lock-in ( Figure 2 ). In healthcare, machine-independent solutions frequently utilize open-source technologies, cloud-based infrastructures, and standardized data formats. Through this approach, hospitals and care providers can integrate AI and big data analytics into their workflows while maintaining interoperability with various systems, such as EHR platforms from multiple vendors. This promotes collaboration, data sharing, and system upgrades without incurring costly disruptions. Machine independence is particularly crucial as healthcare progresses towards Industry 4.0, 19 where data-driven approaches are central. 20 Ensuring that AI and big data tools 21 are machine-independent facilitates seamless integration across diverse healthcare environments, supporting a more robust, adaptable, and accessible healthcare system. It also facilitates the adoption of innovative technologies and enhances patient outcomes across various clinical settings ( Figure 3 ). Machine independence in healthcare is essential for ensuring that critical systems and technologies can adapt to rapidly changing environments without being constrained by specific hardware or software. This characteristic is particularly significant in the context of big data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI), where data sources and computational requirements vary across healthcare providers. Machine-independent systems can operate on diverse infrastructure configurations, whether on-premise, in the cloud, or across hybrid systems, promoting flexibility and scalability ( Figure 4 ). In healthcare, where integration and interoperability are crucial, machine independence enables different institutions to share, access, and process large volumes of data across disparate systems. This flexibility supports enhanced decision-making, expedited diagnoses, and more personalized treatment plans by facilitating the utilization of advanced AI algorithms and big data analytics, irrespective of the platform. It emphasizes the transformative potential of big data in areas such as diagnostics, disease prediction, personalized medicine, and operational management. The authors discuss how big data supports evidence-based decision-making, improves patient outcomes, and streamlines healthcare processes. 22 A significant advantage of machine independence is its capacity to foster innovation without being limited by existing systems. Healthcare facilities can incorporate cutting-edge technologies such as natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, or machine learning algorithms into their operations, regardless of the underlying IT infrastructure. This allows healthcare organizations to evolve alongside technological advancements without costly overhauls or disruptions to patient care ( Figure 5 ). Machine independence also contributes to more robust and resilient healthcare infrastructures, enabling organizations to diversify their technology stack, enhance system security, and ensure continuity of operations even in the event of specific hardware or software failures. 2.2 Machine dependency in Banking Machine learning models and big data analytics 23 play a central role in automating fraud detection, credit risk assessment, and real-time banking insights. These studies emphasize the significance of artificial intelligence and data-driven platforms in enhancing banking operations, cybersecurity, and financial decision making ( Figure 6 ). Machine dependency in big data analytics, especially in the context of banking and finance, plays a pivotal role in achieving the scale, speed, and complexity required for modern applications such as fraud detection, credit risk assessment, and cybersecurity. The machine dependency aspect refers to how heavily these analytics systems rely on computational power, advanced algorithms, and data storage infrastructure to deliver accurate and timely results ( Figure 7 ) In credit/debit card fraud detection , 24 especially in real-time, machine learning models such as decision trees, neural networks, and support vector machines (SVM) require powerful computing resources to process massive amounts of transactional data at high speeds. The dependency on machines ensures that fraud can be detected before it causes substantial financial damage ( Figure 8 ). For credit/debit card-not-present fraud detection , 25 machine dependency becomes even more crucial. The large-scale analysis of transactional metadata (such as geolocation and device fingerprints) relies on big data frameworks like Hadoop and Spark, alongside cloud-based computing resources. These systems enable parallel processing of vast datasets, ensuring that analytics models can detect suspicious behavior in real-time ( Figure 9 ). In credit risk assessment and quantifying cybersecurity risks , 26 machine learning algorithms such as decision trees and SVMs are computationally intensive, especially when analyzing complex and large datasets. Machine dependency in these tasks ensures that the models can run continuously and make decisions based on real-time data streams, which is critical for timely risk assessments. The overall dynamics of big data analytics in the banking sector 27 show an increasing reliance on AI and machine learning models that require not just data but also computing power to function effectively. With the imperatives of big data in finance, 28 the integration of cloud infrastructure , distributed computing systems , and advanced hardware (such as GPUs) becomes essential to run algorithms at the scale needed for financial applications ( Figure 10 ). In summary, machine dependency is foundational to enabling big data analytics systems to handle large, complex datasets, ensuring real-time insights and decision-making in the banking and finance sector. 29 2.3 Machine dependency in Finance Big data, artificial intelligence, and machine learning facilitate the automation of financial processes such as risk mitigation, fraud detection, and credit evaluation. These studies highlight the integration of the IoT, data-driven analysis, and machine learning algorithms to transform financial operations, 30 sustainability analysis, and digital finance 31 services ( Figure 11 ). Machine dependency in big data within the finance sector refers to the reliance on specific hardware, software, and computing infrastructure to effectively process, analyze, and utilize large datasets for financial decision-making. Big data analytics in finance often necessitates powerful computational resources, specialized software, and cloud platforms that support extensive data storage and high-speed processing. Machine learning algorithms employed for tasks such as risk mitigation, fraud detection, and credit evaluation depend on specific systems and frameworks for training models and making predictions ( Figure 12 ). The financial industry frequently encounters challenges due to machine dependency, such as reliance on proprietary software for algorithmic trading, data analysis, or fraud detection, which constrains flexibility and interoperability across different systems. Financial institutions may become constrained within specific vendor ecosystems, diminishing their ability to switch providers or integrate new technologies without substantial costs ( Figure 13 ). Machine dependency also raises concerns regarding data security, as financial data must often be stored and processed on particular machines or cloud environments, potentially increasing the risk of cyber threats if systems are compromised. While machine learning and artificial intelligence enhance financial processes, the dependency on particular machines and infrastructure can impede innovation and adaptability unless measures are taken to adopt more platform-agnostic solutions, such as open-source software or cloud-agnostic platforms ( Figure 14 ). Machine dependency in big data in finance 32 refers to the reliance on specific computational infrastructure, algorithms, and software systems to process and analyze massive amounts of financial data. As financial institutions increasingly adopt big data analytics and machine learning for risk mitigation, fraud detection, and credit evaluation, machine dependency can become a limiting factor. This reliance on proprietary hardware, software, or algorithms often results in inflexibility, impeding adaptation to new technologies or integration with other systems. 33 For instance, risk mitigation and fraud detection models may rely heavily on certain machine learning frameworks that are optimized for specific hardware environments. In such cases, transitioning to alternative platforms or integrating with different systems might necessitate costly re-engineering. Similarly, credit evaluation systems driven by big data and the Internet of Things (IoT) may depend on custom-built architectures, thereby restricting scalability or interoperability across different platforms ( Figure 15 ). 2.4 Machine dependency in Retail Retail-related studies utilize big data technologies, including advanced analytics, machine learning models, and data fusion techniques, to optimize retail store productivity, detect fraud, predict sales trends, and analyze consumer behavior ( Figure 16 ). Machine dependency in the context of big data technologies in retail refers to the reliance on specific hardware, software, or algorithms that can create barriers to flexibility, scalability, and innovation. As retail companies increasingly adopt big data analytics for various applications, such as enhancing productivity, combating fraud, and understanding consumer behavior, this dependency can significantly impact their operational efficiency and adaptability ( Figure 17 ). For instance, many retail analytics 34 solutions require robust computational infrastructure to process large datasets effectively. This often leads to reliance on specific machine learning frameworks and databases optimized for hardware configurations. Such dependencies can hinder a retailer’s ability to integrate newer technologies or switch to alternative systems, resulting in increased costs and longer implementation times. For example, in analyzing the sales data of Bigmart 35 outlets, reliance on specific analytics software may limit the organization’s ability to pivot quickly in response to market changes ( Figure 18 ). Additionally, the use of big data to enhance data envelopment analysis (DEA) of retail store productivity 36 illustrates another aspect of machine dependency. If the DEA models are built on specific platforms, retailers may face challenges in scaling these models or adapting them to different data sources, restricting their capacity to evaluate productivity effectively across diverse retail environments ( Figure 19 ). Fraud detection systems, which leverage big data analytics to combat retail fraud, 37 are also susceptible to machine dependency. Often, these systems are built on tailored algorithms that operate best within certain frameworks. This can limit retailers’ ability to update or adapt their fraud detection capabilities as new threats emerge, ultimately compromising security. The analysis of consumer behavior using big data further underscores the risks of machine dependency. Retailers may become overly reliant on certain data sources, such as social media 38 or point-of-sale data, processed through specific analytics platforms. This can result in a narrow view of consumer insights, limiting the retailer’s ability to innovate and respond to shifting consumer preferences ( Figure 20 ). Moreover, the transformation of traditional retail 39 in the era of big data often involves integrating multiple data streams, including demographic data, sales data, and online behavior. If retailers are locked into specific technologies, they may struggle to achieve the necessary interoperability and flexibility to leverage these diverse data sources effectively. In conclusion, while big data technologies present significant opportunities for retail companies, the potential for machine dependency poses challenges that can inhibit innovation, limit adaptability, and increase operational costs. 40 Retailers need to adopt machine-independent solutions to ensure flexibility in their big data initiatives and maintain a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving market. 41 2.5 Machine dependency in Real Estate The studies on forecasting commercial real estate indicators and predictive analytics for the real estate market during the COVID-19 pandemic 42 predominantly utilize machine learning models, big data algorithms, and social data analytics. These methodologies rely on computational processing capabilities to analyze extensive datasets, monitor human behavior, and effectively predict market trends ( Figure 21 ). Machine dependency in the context of forecasting commercial real estate indicators and predictive analytics during the COVID-19 pandemic 43 refers to the reliance on specific technological platforms, software applications, or algorithms for analyzing and interpreting large volumes of data. As the real estate market navigates the challenges posed by the pandemic, this dependency can significantly impact the accuracy and effectiveness of predictive models and insights. For instance, when leveraging social big data to forecast commercial real estate indicators, researchers and analysts often depend on specific data processing frameworks or machine learning algorithms optimized for particular types of hardware. This dependency can create barriers to integrating diverse data sources, such as social media activity, economic indicators, and market trends. If the analytical models are designed around specific technological constraints, it can limit flexibility, making it difficult to adapt to changing market conditions or incorporate emerging data streams relevant to understanding human behavior during the pandemic ( Figure 22 ). Similarly, predictive analytics using big data for the real estate market may involve the use of proprietary software or tailored machine learning solutions. These systems can be complex and require specialized knowledge to operate effectively. This machine dependency might hinder real estate firms’ ability to rapidly adjust their analytics strategies in response to evolving market dynamics or consumer behaviors influenced by COVID-19. For example, if a predictive model is entrenched in a specific platform, switching to a more advanced or efficient system could entail significant costs and downtime, limiting the firm’s responsiveness to the fluidity of the real estate landscape ( Figure 23 ). Furthermore, the reliance on specific data processing and analytics tools can create a homogenized approach to data interpretation, leading to potential blind spots. When all analyses are conducted through a single technological lens, real estate analysts may miss critical insights that could arise from utilizing alternative methods or platforms. This is particularly relevant during a pandemic when market conditions are volatile, and the ability to pivot and adopt new methodologies quickly is paramount ( Figure 24 ). Moreover, machine dependency can pose risks related to data privacy and security. Relying on specific systems may increase vulnerabilities, especially when handling sensitive data related to human activity and real estate transactions. If these systems are compromised, the implications can be severe, not only for individual firms but also for the broader market. In conclusion, while big data analytics offers valuable tools for forecasting and predictive modeling in commercial real estate, machine dependency presents significant challenges. The reliance on specific technologies can inhibit flexibility, limit innovation, and create risks that may impede effective decision-making during uncertain times, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. To enhance adaptability and maintain a competitive edge, real estate firms should prioritize machine-independent solutions that enable more agile and comprehensive analysis ( Figure 25 ). 2.6 Machine dependency in Agricultural Machine dependency on big data analytics and machine learning models to automate disaster risk management 44 and operational decision-making. Machine dependency in the context of agricultural disaster risk management and big data analytics applications in information management highlights the challenges associated with relying on specific technologies, software platforms, or algorithms to process and analyze large datasets. As these fields increasingly adopt big data analytics to enhance operational efficiencies and decision-making, the reliance on machines or systems can create barriers to flexibility, scalability, and innovation ( Figure 26 ). In agricultural disaster risk management, big data analytics plays a crucial role in assessing risks, predicting events, and formulating response strategies. However, if these analytical processes are tied to specific hardware or proprietary software, the capacity to adapt to new data sources or methodologies can be significantly constrained. For instance, if a system is designed to analyze agricultural data exclusively through a particular cloud platform or machine learning framework, it may struggle to incorporate alternative data streams, such as real-time satellite imagery or sensor data from IoT devices. This can result in incomplete risk assessments and a diminished ability to respond effectively to emerging threats ( Figure 27 ). Moreover, the bibliometric analysis of big data analytics applications in information management further illustrates machine dependency concerns. In this study, the reliance on specific statistical tools and programming languages, such as R, can limit the accessibility and reproducibility of the findings. Researchers may find themselves locked into particular analytical approaches, which can hinder the exploration of diverse methodologies or frameworks that could yield different insights. This dependency on certain technologies can stifle innovation and reduce the overall robustness of the research ( Figure 28 ). Another critical aspect of machine dependency is the risk of vendor lock-in. If organizations commit to specific platforms for their big data analytics, they may face challenges when it comes time to upgrade or switch technologies. The associated costs and complexities of transitioning to new systems can lead to stagnation in their analytics capabilities. For example, agricultural organizations using specific big data tools may find it difficult to implement new analytical techniques or integrate cutting-edge technologies without incurring substantial costs or facing lengthy implementation bottlenecks ( Figure 29 ). Furthermore, machine dependency can raise concerns about data security and privacy. When data is processed through specific machines or software, vulnerabilities may arise, particularly if those systems are not updated regularly or lack robust security measures. In agricultural settings, where data can include sensitive information about crop yields, market prices, 45 or resource allocations, the implications of such vulnerabilities can be catastrophic , potentially leading to data breaches or misuse ( Figure 30 ). In summary, while big data analytics has transformative potential in agricultural disaster risk management and information management, machine dependency presents notable challenges. This reliance on specific technologies can limit flexibility, hinder innovation, and create risks that may undermine decision-making capabilities. To overcome these challenges, organizations should seek machine-independent solutions that promote interoperability and adaptability, ensuring they can effectively leverage big data analytics for improved outcomes in their respective fields. 3.

Continue reading READ ALL #1 The systematic review partially clarifies its rationale and objectives but requires refinement for greater precision. The rationale broadly highlights the transformative role of automation, big data, AI, and ML across six sectors (e.g., healthcare, finance) and acknowledges challenges like data quality and privacy. However, it lacks explicit justification for its synergistic focus, failing to address gaps in existing literature (e.g., fragmented sector-specific reviews) or the urgency of cross-sector analysis. The objectives outline the intent to explore technological impacts and list applications (e.g., fraud detection in banking) but are overly vague, omitting structured goals (e.g., comparative analyses of adoption barriers) and methodological rigor (e.g., undefined study selection criteria). To enhance clarity, the review should explicitly state its unique contribution (e.g., synthesizing cross-sector insights), structure objectives as distinct research questions, and define scope (e.g., peer-reviewed studies from 2018–2025). Methodological transparency, such as a PRISMA flowchart and justification for sector inclusion, would strengthen its systematic approach. While the review’s intent is evident, sharper articulation of gaps, objectives, and methods would bolster its academic rigor and practical relevance. #2 The systematic review partly provides sufficient methodological details, with notable strengths and weaknesses. Strengths include a broad foundation of 1,000+ reviewed papers, focused analysis of 100 key studies, and visual aids (e.g., figures on publication trends) to illustrate sector-specific research activity. Analytical tools like Jamovi and statistical methods (EFA, regression) are referenced, suggesting technical rigor. However, weaknesses undermine reproducibility: the absence of a PRISMA flow diagram obscures study selection processes; inclusion/exclusion criteria for selecting the 100 studies are undefined; search strategies (databases, keywords, timeframe justification) are omitted; and data synthesis methods (e.g., theme identification like "machine dependency") lack clarity. Additionally, statistical protocols (e.g., variable selection, regression assumptions) are inadequately described. To improve, the review should adopt standard systematic review practices: Include a PRISMA flowchart to detail screening stages (identification, screening, eligibility, inclusion). Define search strings (e.g., "big data AND healthcare AND machine learning") and inclusion/exclusion criteria (e.g., peer-reviewed articles from 2018–2025). Clarify data extraction (e.g., coding frameworks for sector/thematic categorization) and statistical rationale (e.g., why EFA was chosen over other methods). In conclusion, while the review’s scope and analytical tools are commendable, critical methodological gaps hinder replication. Enhancing transparency in search strategies, study selection, and analysis protocols would strengthen rigor and ensure reproducibility. Addressing these issues would align the review with systematic standards and bolster its academic credibility. #3 The statistical analysis in the systematic review is partially appropriate. Appropriate aspects include the use of validated methods like Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with factor loadings >0.7 and Cronbach’s α >0.7 to assess reliability, as well as regression analysis to quantify relationships (e.g., financial constraints β = 0.604). Descriptive statistics, such as demographic data (e.g., 67% low literacy) and publication trends, are also clearly presented. These methods align with standard practices for analyzing survey or primary data. However, key weaknesses limit the analysis. The application of EFA and regression is unconventional for systematic reviews unless synthesizing primary data, and the manuscript does not clarify whether these methods were applied to the reviewed studies or a separate dataset. Critical assumption checks (e.g., normality, multicollinearity) are missing, and results lack contextual interpretation (e.g., effect sizes or practical implications of β values). Additionally, the absence of meta-analysis—a hallmark of systematic reviews—undermines quantitative synthesis of findings across studies. To improve, the review should clarify the methodology (e.g., specify if statistical tests were applied to reviewed studies or original data), validate assumptions (e.g., residual analysis for regression), and contextualize results (e.g., discuss effect sizes like Cohen’s f²). Adopting PRISMA guidelines, conducting meta-analyses, and justifying analytical choices would enhance rigor. While the statistical techniques are technically sound, their unconventional application and lack of transparency limit reproducibility and alignment with systematic review standards. Strengthening these areas would ensure the analysis meets academic expectations. #4 The systematic review’s conclusions are partly supported by the presented results. Supported conclusions include sector-specific applications of AI/ML (e.g., fraud detection in banking, disease prediction in healthcare), validated by figures showing publication trends and case studies. The discussion of machine dependency in sectors like healthcare and agriculture is also substantiated, with examples highlighting scalability and interoperability challenges. However, several conclusions lack robust evidence. Claims about the transformative impact of AI/ML are overstated, as the review does not quantify outcomes (e.g., healthcare efficacy improvements) or critically assess real-world adoption. Challenges like data quality and ethics are mentioned but not deeply explored, failing to link ethical concerns to sector-specific examples. Recommendations for machine-independent solutions or future directions lack empirical backing from the reviewed studies. Key gaps weaken the review’s credibility. There is no comparative analysis of AI/ML adoption barriers across sectors (e.g., healthcare vs. retail), undermining claims of cross-sector synergies. The review superficially addresses limitations like data privacy, without synthesizing evidence on their prevalence or severity. Overreliance on publication metrics (e.g., paper counts) conflates research activity with technological impact, ignoring study quality or practical implementation. For instance, trends in healthcare publications (Figure 1) do not confirm whether AI tools are clinically effective or widely adopted. To strengthen conclusions, the review should integrate sector-specific evidence (e.g., “AI improved diagnostic accuracy in 15/20 healthcare studies”) and employ meta-analytic techniques to quantify trends (e.g., average fraud detection accuracy gains). Challenges and future directions must be explicitly tied to findings (e.g., agricultural machine dependency justifying interoperable solutions). Addressing these gaps through deeper synthesis and critical appraisal would enhance the review’s rigor and credibility, ensuring conclusions are both data-driven and actionable.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions Areas for Improvement 1. Clarity of Objectives and Rationale - Issue: The rationale lacks explicit justification for the review’s synergistic focus. Why is a cross-sector analysis necessary? How does this fill gaps left by sector-specific reviews? - Fix: - Clearly state the review’s unique contribution (e.g., identifying common challenges like machine dependency across sectors). - Define specific research questions (e.g., "How do AI/ML adoption barriers differ between healthcare and finance?"). 2. Statistical and Analytical Rigor - Only descriptive stats are present, but no inferential stats. This is a crtical issue. - Issue: Methods like EFA and regression are mentioned but lack context. Are these applied to the reviewed studies or original data? Assumptions (e.g., normality) and effect sizes (e.g., β-values) are unaddressed. - Fix: - Clarify the purpose of statistical tools (e.g., "EFA was used to categorize challenges"). - Include meta-analysis (if feasible) to quantify trends (e.g., "AI improved fraud detection accuracy by 30% in 15/20 studies"). 4. Critical Analysis and Synthesis - Section 6, 7 and 8 are poorly written. add the actual analysis and discussion in there, not just pointing out to the pictures. - Issue: The discussion is descriptive rather than analytical. For example: - Machine dependency in healthcare is discussed but not compared to challenges in retail (e.g., vendor lock-in vs. scalability). - Ethical considerations (e.g., data privacy) are mentioned but not linked to sector-specific case studies. - Fix: - Add a comparative table summarizing cross-sector challenges (e.g., "Healthcare: Interoperability vs. Retail: Vendor lock-in"). - Discuss limitations of existing studies (e.g., bias toward high-income countries in agricultural data). 5. Presentation and Formatting - Issue: - Mislabeled figures (e.g., Table 6 labeled as "Digital security culture" instead of XDR). - Inconsistent citation formatting (e.g., missing DOIs in some references). - Fix: - Standardize table/figure labels (e.g., "Figure 6: Extended Detection and Response (XDR)"). - Ensure all references follow journal guidelines (e.g., italicize journal names, include URLs/DOIs). 6. Conclusion and Implications - Issue: Conclusions restate findings without actionable recommendations (e.g., "machine-independent solutions are needed" lacks sector-specific guidance). - Fix: - Propose solutions (e.g., "Adopt open-source frameworks in healthcare to reduce vendor lock-in"). - Highlight future research directions (e.g., "Explore AI ethics in agricultural disaster management"). --- Recommendations for Revision 1. Restructure the Introduction: Explicitly state gaps in existing literature and the review’s unique value. 2. Expand Methods Section: Detail search strategies, inclusion/exclusion criteria, and data synthesis protocols. 3. Enhance Critical Analysis: Compare sector-specific challenges and synthesize trends (e.g., "Data quality issues persist across all sectors"). 4. Correct Presentation Errors: Ensure accurate labeling of figures/tables and consistent citation formatting. 5. Strengthen Conclusions: Link findings to practical implications (e.g., "Policymakers should prioritize interoperable frameworks"). --- Final Remarks This review has significant potential to inform interdisciplinary research and practice. Addressing methodological transparency, deepening critical analysis, and refining presentation will elevate its impact. Consider collaborating with a methodologist or statistician to strengthen quantitative synthesis. Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions #1 The systematic review partially clarifies its rationale and objectives but requires refinement for greater precision. The rationale broadly highlights the transformative role of automation, big data, AI, and ML across six sectors (e.g., healthcare, finance) and acknowledges challenges like data quality and privacy. However, it lacks explicit justification for its synergistic focus, failing to address gaps in existing literature (e.g., fragmented sector-specific reviews) or the urgency of cross-sector analysis. The objectives outline the intent to explore technological impacts and list applications (e.g., fraud detection in banking) but are overly vague, omitting structured goals (e.g., comparative analyses of adoption barriers) and methodological rigor (e.g., undefined study selection criteria). To enhance clarity, the review should explicitly state its unique contribution (e.g., synthesizing cross-sector insights), structure objectives as distinct research questions, and define scope (e.g., peer-reviewed studies from 2018–2025). Methodological transparency, such as a PRISMA flowchart and justification for sector inclusion, would strengthen its systematic approach. While the review’s intent is evident, sharper articulation of gaps, objectives, and methods would bolster its academic rigor and practical relevance. #2 The systematic review partly provides sufficient methodological details, with notable strengths and weaknesses. Strengths include a broad foundation of 1,000+ reviewed papers, focused analysis of 100 key studies, and visual aids (e.g., figures on publication trends) to illustrate sector-specific research activity. Analytical tools like Jamovi and statistical methods (EFA, regression) are referenced, suggesting technical rigor. However, weaknesses undermine reproducibility: the absence of a PRISMA flow diagram obscures study selection processes; inclusion/exclusion criteria for selecting the 100 studies are undefined; search strategies (databases, keywords, timeframe justification) are omitted; and data synthesis methods (e.g., theme identification like "machine dependency") lack clarity. Additionally, statistical protocols (e.g., variable selection, regression assumptions) are inadequately described. To improve, the review should adopt standard systematic review practices: Include a PRISMA flowchart to detail screening stages (identification, screening, eligibility, inclusion). Define search strings (e.g., "big data AND healthcare AND machine learning") and inclusion/exclusion criteria (e.g., peer-reviewed articles from 2018–2025). Clarify data extraction (e.g., coding frameworks for sector/thematic categorization) and statistical rationale (e.g., why EFA was chosen over other methods). In conclusion, while the review’s scope and analytical tools are commendable, critical methodological gaps hinder replication. Enhancing transparency in search strategies, study selection, and analysis protocols would strengthen rigor and ensure reproducibility. Addressing these issues would align the review with systematic standards and bolster its academic credibility. #3 The statistical analysis in the systematic review is partially appropriate. Appropriate aspects include the use of validated methods like Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with factor loadings >0.7 and Cronbach’s α >0.7 to assess reliability, as well as regression analysis to quantify relationships (e.g., financial constraints β = 0.604). Descriptive statistics, such as demographic data (e.g., 67% low literacy) and publication trends, are also clearly presented. These methods align with standard practices for analyzing survey or primary data. However, key weaknesses limit the analysis. The application of EFA and regression is unconventional for systematic reviews unless synthesizing primary data, and the manuscript does not clarify whether these methods were applied to the reviewed studies or a separate dataset. Critical assumption checks (e.g., normality, multicollinearity) are missing, and results lack contextual interpretation (e.g., effect sizes or practical implications of β values). Additionally, the absence of meta-analysis—a hallmark of systematic reviews—undermines quantitative synthesis of findings across studies. To improve, the review should clarify the methodology (e.g., specify if statistical tests were applied to reviewed studies or original data), validate assumptions (e.g., residual analysis for regression), and contextualize results (e.g., discuss effect sizes like Cohen’s f²). Adopting PRISMA guidelines, conducting meta-analyses, and justifying analytical choices would enhance rigor. While the statistical techniques are technically sound, their unconventional application and lack of transparency limit reproducibility and alignment with systematic review standards. Strengthening these areas would ensure the analysis meets academic expectations. #4 The systematic review’s conclusions are partly supported by the presented results. Supported conclusions include sector-specific applications of AI/ML (e.g., fraud detection in banking, disease prediction in healthcare), validated by figures showing publication trends and case studies. The discussion of machine dependency in sectors like healthcare and agriculture is also substantiated, with examples highlighting scalability and interoperability challenges. However, several conclusions lack robust evidence. Claims about the transformative impact of AI/ML are overstated, as the review does not quantify outcomes (e.g., healthcare efficacy improvements) or critically assess real-world adoption. Challenges like data quality and ethics are mentioned but not deeply explored, failing to link ethical concerns to sector-specific examples. Recommendations for machine-independent solutions or future directions lack empirical backing from the reviewed studies. Key gaps weaken the review’s credibility. There is no comparative analysis of AI/ML adoption barriers across sectors (e.g., healthcare vs. retail), undermining claims of cross-sector synergies. The review superficially addresses limitations like data privacy, without synthesizing evidence on their prevalence or severity. Overreliance on publication metrics (e.g., paper counts) conflates research activity with technological impact, ignoring study quality or practical implementation. For instance, trends in healthcare publications (Figure 1) do not confirm whether AI tools are clinically effective or widely adopted. To strengthen conclusions, the review should integrate sector-specific evidence (e.g., “AI improved diagnostic accuracy in 15/20 healthcare studies”) and employ meta-analytic techniques to quantify trends (e.g., average fraud detection accuracy gains). Challenges and future directions must be explicitly tied to findings (e.g., agricultural machine dependency justifying interoperable solutions). Addressing these gaps through deeper synthesis and critical appraisal would enhance the review’s rigor and credibility, ensuring conclusions are both data-driven and actionable.
