To address the detrimental sustainability challenges of our time, the synthesis of two currently isolated innovation research streams is promising: 1) Digital innovation leveraging digital technologies to create novel solutions, and 2) social innovation creating social value and thus...

With the increasing deployment of robots to support humans in various activities, a crucial factor that has surfaced as a precondition for successful human-robot interaction (HRI) is the human’s level of trust in the robotic companion. A phenomenon that has recently shifted into the foreground...

Artificial intelligence (AI) systems, particularly generative AI systems, present numerous opportunities for organizations and society. As AI systems become more powerful, ensuring their safe and ethical use necessitates accountability, requiring actors to explain and justify any unintended...

The growing autonomy and self-learning abilities of advanced technologies alter the dynamics of human-AI interaction, while also raising important ethical concerns. This study calls for rethinking AI literacy to encompass additional abilities necessary for responsible human-AI interaction....

As digital transformation progresses, research broadens its perspective to not only focus on the positive effects but also on the adverse impacts of the increasing use of digital technologies. Against this backdrop, the issue of being responsibly digital moves to the foreground in research and...

Digital transformation and sustainability transformation are at the top of organizations’ agendas to remain competitive. While guidance on both transformations exists separately, even more research on integrating digital and sustainability transformation, namely twin transformation, is...

As artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) advance, concerns about their sustainability impact grow. The emerging field "Sustainability of AI" addresses this issue, with papers exploring distinct aspects of ML’s sustainability. However, it lacks a comprehensive approach that...

The significance of metaverse platforms is growing in both research and practical applications. To utilize the chances and opportunities metaverse platforms offer, research and practice must understand how these platforms create value, which has not been adequately explored. Our research...
