Abstract

Purpose

This study examines the existing literature on generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) and its impact across many sectors. This analysis explores the potential, applications, and challenges of Gen AI in driving innovation and creativity and generating ideas.

Design/methodology/approach

The study adopts a comprehensive literature review approach, carefully assessing current scientific articles on Gen AI published from 2022 to 2024. The analysis examines trends and insights derived from research.

Findings

The review indicates that Gen AI has significant potential to augment human creativity and innovation processes as a collaborative partner. However, it is imperative to prioritize responsible development and ethical frameworks in order to effectively tackle biases, privacy concerns, and other challenges. Gen AI is significantly transforming business models, processes, and value propositions in several industries, but with varying degrees of effect. Findings indicate also that despite the theory-driven approach to investigating Gen AI's creative and innovative potential, cutting-edge applications research prioritizes examining the possibilities of Gen AI models.

Research limitations/implications

Although this review offers a picture of great possibilities, it concurrently underlines the necessity for a deep knowledge of Gen AI nuances to fully harness its capabilities. The findings indicate that continuous research and exploration efforts are required to address the challenges of Gen AI and assure its responsible and ethical implementation. Therefore, more study is needed on enhancing human-AI collaboration and defining ethical norms for varied circumstances.

Originality/value

This study presents a relevant analysis of Gen AI's transformational potential as an innovation catalyst. It emphasizes major potential, applications across industries, and ethical issues for responsible integration.

作为创新变革力量的新一代人工智能:机遇、应用和挑战综述
目的本研究探讨了有关创生型人工智能(Gen AI)及其在多个领域的影响的现有文献。本分析探讨了创生型人工智能在推动创新和创造力以及产生想法方面的潜力、应用和挑战。本研究采用了一种全面的文献综述方法,仔细评估了 2022 年至 2024 年期间发表的有关创生型人工智能的最新科学文章。研究结果综述表明,作为协作伙伴,人工智能在增强人类创造力和创新流程方面具有巨大潜力。然而,必须优先考虑负责任的发展和道德框架,以有效解决偏见、隐私问题和其他挑战。新一代人工智能正在显著改变多个行业的商业模式、流程和价值主张,但效果各不相同。研究局限/启示尽管本综述展示了巨大的可能性,但同时也强调了深入了解 Gen AI 的细微差别以充分利用其能力的必要性。研究结果表明,要应对新一代人工智能的挑战并确保以负责任和合乎道德的方式实施人工智能,还需要持续的研究和探索努力。因此,需要对加强人类与人工智能的合作以及针对不同情况定义道德规范进行更多研究。 原创性/价值 本研究对人工智能作为创新催化剂的变革潜力进行了相关分析。它强调了主要潜力、跨行业应用以及负责任的整合所涉及的伦理问题。

期刊介绍: The subject of innovation is receiving increased interest both from companies because of their increased awareness of the impact of innovation in determining market success and also from the research community. Academics are increasingly beginning to place innovation as a priority area in their research agenda. This impetus has been partly fuelled by the Economic & Social Research Council (ESRC) who have designated innovation as one of nine research areas in their research initiative schemes.
