Aistirelated

Aistirelated is a coined term used in some tagging schemes and informal discussions to designate topics connected to artificial intelligence (AI) and information science technology (IST). The word is formed by combining AI with the word related to signal association rather than referring to a specific discipline.

In practice, aistirelated appears in metadata fields, content management systems, academic datasets, and conference tracks as a broad catch-all category. It can cover AI theory (such as machine learning algorithms and reasoning), AI applications (including robotics, natural language processing, and computer vision), data science, and ethics and governance when these areas intersect with information systems. Because it is informal, the scope can vary between communities, repositories, and publishers.

Limitations include lack of standardization and inconsistent spelling or usage across platforms. The term can be redundant with AI-related or artificial intelligence-related labels and may create ambiguity about whether a topic is strictly within information science technology or encompasses a wider range of AI-adjacent subjects.

Relation to other terms is one of overlap and negotiation. Aistirelated often serves as a broader or looser umbrella than more precise labels such as AI-related, artificial intelligence, machine learning, data science, or information technology.
