Despite the growing literature on AI, there are still important questions to answer about its impact on companies. For AI to change our work lives, it can depend on complementary organizational change to translate technological change into a change of daily work routines. Failure to scrutinize the organizational adjustments companies make in response to these technological advances will lead to an incomplete comprehension of the evolution of work dynamics. We lack an understanding of the barriers that prevent companies from integrating AI into their current work processes, the areas where reorganization contributes to overcoming these barriers, and identify the mechanisms whereby organizational change complements AI adoption. We need to better understand how AI is redefining the boundaries of a company, specifically how they are changing the organization of work both inside and outside the firm. This symposium contains new research aimed at filling this research gap on the new frontiers of organizing work within firms. Each project offers fresh perspectives for the successful integration of AI within the existing information processing routines of the firm.
