Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) is a globally recognised publication outlet for the field of Computer Science, including in South Africa. In this study, spanning from 1973 to 2022, we investigated the research participation of South African based authors in LNCS. The publication output and citation impact of these authors were compared to the global Computer Science and LNCS output. The authorship patterns and collaborative behaviour of South African LNCS papers were explored, and a keyword or topic analysis also conducted. Of the total of 518 662 LNCS papers published globally between 1973 and 2022, South African based researchers contributed 1150 papers (0.22%). The LNCS papers from South Africa exhibit a strong collaborative publication culture, with 1043 (91%) co-authored and 107 (9%) singleauthored works. Local LNCS researchers prefer institutional collaboration (43%), followed by international (37%) and national collaboration (11%). Europe emerged as the most significant collaboration partner for LNCS researchers in South Africa. Of the 1150 papers, 836 (73%) had received citations, while 314 (27%) had not. On average, papers published by South African based authors received 6.05 citations, compared to the global LNCS average of 9.49 citations per paper. A keyword analysis revealed that the majority of papers by South African authors focus on artificial intelligence. The results indicate that, although LNCS serves as a reputable dissemination platform for Computer Science research output both globally and locally, South African authors should consider publishing more journal articles to build and improve their researcher profiles.

This article presents a scientometric and literature analysis of current research on ChatGPT, a conversational AI technology developed by OpenAI. Using various databases, 103 relevant articles were retrieved and analyzed through scientometric, quantitative, and application-based approaches. A Google trend analysis and comparison with other generative AI and chatbot technologies were also carried out. The study provides insights into the distribution of ChatGPT publications across different countries and regions, the network of co-occurring keywords, authorship analysis, article typology, and publishing entities. The findings offer a comprehensive overview of the current state of ChatGPT research, highlighting key directions for future research. The study finds that ChatGPT has gained significant attention and interest in online platforms, particularly in technology, education, and healthcare, and highlights potential ethical and legal concerns related to its use. Its applications extend to several literary and text generation areas. We do note that the sample of extracted publications is lower than anticipated due to the niche area of investigation. The article is relevant to researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the field of AI-powered language models, especially ChatGPT.
