Recognizing and Utilizing Novel Research Opportunities with Artificial Intelligence

New Article

As we are witnessing a fundamental transformation of organizations, societies, and economies through the rapid growth of data and development of digital technology (George, Osinga, Lavie, & Scott, 2016), artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the management field. With the power to automatize, provide predictions of outcomes, and discover patterns in massive amounts of data (Iansiti & Lakhani, 2020), AI changes many aspects of contemporary organizing, including decision-making, problem-solving, and other processes (Bailey, Faraj, Hinds, Leonardi, & von Krogh, 2022). AI also enables firms with capabilities for offering new products and services, developing new business models, and connecting stakeholders. In line with these developments, AI is not only an interesting phenomenon to study in and around organizations (e.g., Krakowski, Luger, & Raisch, 2022Tang et al., 2022Tong, Jia, Luo, & Fang, 2021), but also offers management scholars a wealth of research opportunities in enlarging their methodological toolbox to leverage vast amounts and various types of data (e.g., Choudhury, Allen, & Endres, 2020Vanneste & Gulati, 2022). In our quest to push scientific boundaries, we encourage authors to explore these opportunities within Academy of Management Journal (AMJ)…
