“…These tactical methodological approaches may hold the key to improving health outcomes for patients and job outcomes for nurses. The use of artificial intelligence such as machine learning (Kim et al, 2023) and natural language processing (Song et al, 2023) are examples of approaches in nursing research published in JAN that can help make sense of big data in nursing, from the past, present and future, to capture the changing nature of phenomena and create benchmarks needed to improve poorer patient and nurse outcomes. Although the use of AI is an exciting new realm, it behoves researchers to carefully consider the use of AI in processing data and ensure that innovation is the resulting product rather than recycled information.…”
