内容简介:

The adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has changed firm innovation by making it possible to search for, create, retain, recombine, and transfer knowledge in new ways. This paper proposes and empirically examines the effects of AI adoption on firm innovation performance - innovation volume as well as innovation speed. We further examine how both effects are influenced by pertinent AI regulatory support. Using data of the U.S. medical device industry from 2010 to 2020, we find that AI adoption positively influences firm product innovation performance through both innovation volume and speed. Moreover, AI regulatory support positively moderates both relationships. The paper contributes to the emerging literature on AI in strategic management, furthering our understanding of how AI adoption and AI regulatory support affect firm innovation performance.
