Claims

C1strongest claim

The analysis reveals a clear dominance of OpenAI's GPT in the included studies but relying primarily on prompt engineering, suggesting that research in this area remains at an exploratory stage.

C2weakest assumption

That the studies retrieved and included via the PRISMA process form a representative and unbiased sample of all relevant generative AI applications in IT project management.

C3one line summary

A PRISMA systematic review concludes that generative AI use in IT project management is dominated by OpenAI GPT models relying on prompt engineering, remains exploratory, and points to three future directions involving specialized AI agents and hybrid human-AI networks.
