Abstract: As we are witnessing a fundamental transformation of organizations, societies, and economies through the rapid growth of data and development of digital technology (George, Osinga, Lavie, & Scott, 2016), artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the management field.With the power to automatize, provide predictions of outcomes, and discover patterns in massive amounts of data (Iansiti & Lakhani, 2020), AI changes many aspects of contemporary organizing, including decision-making, problem-solving, and other processes (Bailey, Faraj, Hinds, Leonardi, & von Krogh, 2022).AI also enables firms with capabilities for offering new products and services, developing new business models, and connecting stakeholders.In line with these developments, AI is not only an interesting phenomenon to study in and around organizations (e.g., Krakowski, Luger, & Raisch, 2022;Tang et al., 2022;Tong, Jia, Luo, & Fang, 2021), but also offers management scholars a wealth of research opportunities in enlarging their methodological toolbox to leverage vast amounts and various types of data (e.g., Choudhury, Allen, & Endres, 2020; Vanneste & Gulati, 2022).In our quest to push scientific boundaries, we encourage authors to explore these opportunities within Academy of Management Journal (AMJ).While AI is a trending and "hot" topic discussed by policy-makers, business leaders, and scientists, understanding when and how machines display intelligent behaviors is at the center of modern AI scholarship (Nilsson, 1998).AI represents a broad field of technologies that display intelligent behaviors, including self-awareness, goal formulation, goal-directed action, reasoning, optimization, learning, and autonomous movements.While many readers will immediately recall the Terminator in the movie by the same name, or the rogue artificial psychopath (HAL) in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, which epitomizes the horrific efficiency of AI (Clarke, 1968(Clarke, /2000)), computer scientists have long abandoned the idea
