Abstract
- Artificial intelligence (hereafter AI) is widely considered as a driving force in the current digital economy, with many firms having already invested in AI. Since AI is unconstrainted by humans' cognitive limitations and inflexibility, and thus a key assumption in popular press is that AI is crucial for firms' success in digital economy. However, surprisingly, many managers indicate they are yet to benefit from their AI investments. To address this issue, the main purpose of this paper is to summarize the extant literature on AI in business and management fields to identify how AI can create competitive advantages and underpin the key barriers that prevent AI from realizing its full potentials. Our results suggest AI can increase revenue by improving employee productivity, increasing consumer evaluation, setting competitive price and creating unique resources. AI can also reduce cost by improving efficiency and reducing risks. However, our results also indicate that AI adoption, task nature and AI management are the key barriers preventing AI from realizing its full potentials. This is because AI lacks interpersonal skills. Thus, we encourage future research to focus on improving AI's interpersonal skills. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
