Why employee AI adoption isn’t one-size-fits-all
Texas A&M UniversityAs artificial intelligence becomes more deeply embedded in everyday life and work, organizations are investing heavily in tools and employee training. But new research from Texas A&M University suggests a one-size-fits-all approach may miss a fundamental truth: people don’t all respond to AI the same way.
In a paper published in the journal Customer Needs and Solutions, Dr. Shrihari Sridhar, the Joe Foster ’56 Chair in Business Leadership and senior associate dean at Texas A&M University’s Mays Business School, and his co-author, Dr. Huachao Gao, say that AI adoption has often been treated as if people share a single attitude toward the technology.
Their findings suggest the opposite: people experience AI in markedly different ways depending on their individual perspectives and the context in which they’re using it — a concept they call “AI-heterogeneity.”

New research finds accelerators amplify existing founder advantages rather than equalizing entrepreneurial opportunity
Strategic Management SocietyA new paper published in Strategic Management Journal finds that startup accelerators do not level the entrepreneurial playing field, they amplify it. The study, “Founders’ Pre-Entry Knowledge and the Heterogeneous Returns to Accelerator Participation,” by Melody H. Chang and Valentina A. Assenova, shows that founders with deeper prior knowledge gain disproportionately more from accelerator participation, while novice founders see more modest benefits. Drawing on data from 6,723 startups across 281 accelerators in 147 countries, the authors find that accelerators “push up the ceiling” of performance for already capable teams without necessarily “pulling up the floor” for others.

Are quarterly earnings pressures hurting companies’ long-term innovation prospects?
Institute for Operations Research and the Management SciencesIf public companies are increasingly focused on meeting quarterly earnings expectations, what happens to the innovations that require years of investment and patience to develop?
New research suggests the answer could have far-reaching implications for businesses, investors and the broader economy. Companies facing greater short-term financial pressures tend to produce fewer breakthrough and novel innovations, the kinds of discoveries that can shape industries for decades.
