Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a buzzword but a reality that is revolutionizing organizations across the industrial spectrum. From automating routine tasks to streamlining operational processes, AI technologies have transformed work design in organizations at all levels (micro-, meso-, and macro-). While the benefits of AI are undeniable, like any other technological advancement, there are challenges. It introduces complexities related not just to the technology per se but also to its interaction with individual, team, and organizational variables. With AI being a transformative force, we are still grappling with questions such as “What are the implications for work design?”, “Who holds accountability for the actions of AI?” or “What are the implications for individuals working with AI?”, questions particularly relevant for human resources. This PDW aims to provide insights into such questions and foster an interdisciplinary dialogue in an interactive way.
