“…Nowadays, in organizations, AI can be regarded as a tool that has been implemented as a way of replicating human performance with the ability to attract its own assumptions through learning, that can help human intelligence or even substitute humans in activities that need cognition [56]. Generally, AI advancements can achieve performance enhancement as a result of speed, flexibility, customization, scale, innovation, and decision-making [11,26]. Moreover, organizations have many benefits from the utilization of AI to create value across various organizational components: process automation; obtaining knowledge from data for decision-making; involving consumers and employees; developing and launching new products and services [7,12,[57][58][59][60][61].…”

“…Few researchers study the literature about AI from a managerial viewpoint, addressing the management of information [6,11,[20][21][22]; decision-making [3,23,24]; knowledge management [25]; and skills [5,[26][27][28][29]. This paper, therefore, to the best of our understanding, varies from those previously conducted by synthesizing to a systematic review of literature by examining the state of the correlation between AI and organizational strategy, a topic not included in the aforementioned articles.…”

“…Two segments which have garnered a lot of attention in recent years are Big Data analytics and high performance computing (HPC) in the cloud. The benefits of Big Data and related analytics include increased agility (Ashrafi et al 2019), innovation (Lehrer et al 2018), and competitive performance (Côrte-Real et al 2017;Mikalef et al 2019) and is widely discussed in both IS and CS literature, and even more so in practice. The contribution of HPC is less widely discussed yet is recognised as playing a pivotal role in both science discovery and national competitiveness (Ezell and Atkinson 2016).…”
