A research perspective: artificial intelligence, organizations and management

ABSTRACT In recent years many companies have deployed Artificial Intelligence (AI), which has included neural networks, expert systems and voice-recognition systems. Yet managers and developers understand very little about how management and organizations affect or are affected by the technology. Using specific examples from practice and research, this paper discusses the interaction of AI, management and organizations, and describes some methodological approaches and theoretical models for studying those interactions. It provides direction for future research. '.
