Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how we work and interact across industries. Its impact is profound and far-reaching, creating both opportunities and challenges for the future of work and human creativity.
Yesterday’s Nobel Prize in Physics (and today’s in chemistry!) reminded us of AI’s significance, awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton for their “foundational discoveries and inventions that enable machine learning with artificial neural networks.”
AI is also reshaping innovation processes. Together with Linus Dahlander (ESMT Berlin), Henry Chesbrough (University of California, Berkeley, Haas School of Business), and Marcel Bogers (Eindhoven University of Technology), I have just published the article “Open Innovation in the Age of AI” in California Management Review. Drawing from various empirical examples and the growing literature on AI and innovation, we explore how AI can enhance existing open innovation practices, enable new ways of opening up innovation processes, and in some cases, even replace open innovation.
