摘要:Artificial intelligence (AI) is an important source of competitive advantage as it enables task augmentation and automation. However, while AI can create significant value, it is important to note that AI investments are fraught with risks and uncertainties. Thus, managers are likely to carefully evaluate potential AI investments before committing to investing. However, we know little about how managers' appraisal of AI influences their investment choices. Drawing upon theorization in the area...

摘要:Increasingly, durable goods have embedded software and are technologically tethered to the vendor's server through this software, be it digital products such as smartphones or predominantly non-digital products such as automobiles and tractors. Tethering can enable the vendor to change the product's performance or features through software updates, with implications for optimal product policy. We study a monopolist technology vendor's decision to partially degrade or fully retire their install...

摘要:Through a multiple-case study of seven German providers, we explore the architecture of commercial offerings of consumer experiences, such as wine-tastings, craft workshops, or wellness activities, which have both digital and physical components. Physical-digital experiences offer participants an opportunity to encounter many different sensations of an experience, as not all (e.g. taste, smell, touch) can be converted to digital form and not all are possible to experience physically (e.g. visu...

摘要:We study the interplay between cyber failures and information technology (IT) capability reputation (ITCAPR). Cyber failures often reveal vulnerable information systems (IS) processes and IT assets at their root that point to firm IT capability weakness. For external stakeholders, firm IT capability is unobservable and therefore a matter of perception or reputation. We theorize about cyber failures' adverse impacts on firm market value and firm ITCAPR based on how external stakeholders reconci...

摘要:This paper offers a novel perspective on trust in artificial intelligence (AI) systems, focusing on the transfer of user trust in AI creators to trust in AI systems. Using the agentic information systems (IS) framework, we investigate the role of AI alignment and steerability in trust transference. Through four randomized experiments, we probe three key alignment-related attributes of AI systems: creator-based steerability, user-based steerability, and autonomy. Results indicate that creator-b...

摘要:Information technology (IT) innovation development within non-IT firms has been a key interest, but it is fraught with challenges because these firms lack sufficient IT knowledge. This study takes a resource dependence perspective to examine how engaging interlocking directorates with IT firms, or IT interlocks, affects non-IT firms' innovation outcomes. Despite the acknowledged role of board interlocks in knowledge transfer, the role of IT interlocks in transferring IT knowledge has not been ...

摘要:In an attempt to combat fake news, policymakers in many countries are considering mandating the disclosure of artificial intelligence (AI) recommendations of social media news articles. We used two randomized controlled experiments to investigate the effects of labeling social media news stories as recommended by AI. Our results show that an AI recommendation reduced belief in true news articles and had no material effect on belief in fake news. In contrast, a recommendation by an expert incre...

摘要:Cybersecurity is a present and growing concern that needs to be addressed with both behavioral and design-oriented research. Public cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services and federal funding agencies such as the National Science Foundation have invested billions of dollars into developing high-performance computing resources accessible to users through configurable virtual machine (VM) images. This approach offers users the flexibility of changing and updating their environment for their ...

摘要:Prior research offers a minimal amount of direct evidence on the effect of gamification features such as top-donor leaderboards on medical crowdfunding, particularly regarding donor engagement, contributions per donor, and total campaign funds. The study analyzes data from 3,415 distinct medical campaigns, leveraging an unannounced change on GoFundMe. The findings reveal a complex scenario that defies simple expectations. The leaderboard is expected to increase donor engagement, but it appears...
