[Patrick Mikalef]

The European Journal of Information Systems has just announced a special issue on “The Dark Side of Analytics and Artificial Intelligence - <https://bit.ly/2mAYOIr> https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/GoodmanRichard/EJIS/blob/master/The%20Dark%20Side%20of%20Analytics%20and%20Artificial%20Intelligence%20CfP.pdf​<https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/GoodmanRichard/EJIS/blob/master/The%20Dark%20Side%20of%20Analytics%20and%20Artificial%20Intelligence%20CfP.pdf>




There will also be an associated paper development workshop at ICIS2019 in Munich where you can get feedback on your work as you develop the full paper for submission.

Short Description

With this call for papers, we aim to extend the critical reflection on the impact and unintended consequences of big data
analytics and AI. Specifically, we aim to attract submissions that delve into the many misplaced assumptions and potential
dangers that AI might introduce in the organizational setting. Such negative implications tend to be often overlooked by
empirical research studies and their consequence seldom discussed. We invite the submission of original manuscripts that
advance empirical, theoretical, and conceptual understanding of the consequences and effects of how big data analytics and
AI drive digital business strategy. Manuscripts must have substantial implications for theory and practice, and we welcome
both empirical papers and conceptual theory development papers, as well as other genres. We are particularly interested in
manuscripts that address the challenges and changes that these technological innovations bring to strategic management
theories, and how such technologies may change the way we think about how organisations operate and compete. The
special issue is designed to embrace a variety of perspectives on emerging technological innovations, information systems,
and digital business strategy research. Purely computer science papers are not within the scope of this special issue
