AI Article Synopsis

  • AI technology is changing the skills needed for employees, leading to shifts in their job roles and performance.
  • A study involving 479 employees from 8 companies in China examined how these changing job skill demands affect employee well-being and performance, using statistical analysis.
  • The findings indicate that while AI increases the need for employees to develop new competencies (enhancing well-being and performance), it can also decrease their sense of job embeddedness (lowering well-being and performance), with technological anxiety influencing these effects.

Article Abstract

With the widespread application of AI technology, the skills and abilities required by employees in their work are undergoing fundamental changes, redefining the roles of employees. This research aims to explore the effect of job skill demands under AI embeddedness on well-being in organizations and job performance. Based on conservation of resources theory, this research randomly selected 479 employees from 8 companies in China using a time-lag method as samples, and conducted statistical analysis with ordinary least squares (OLS). This research found that, job skill demands under AI embeddedness will both increase employees' competency needs, promoting their well-being in organizations and job performance and decrease employees' job embeddedness, inhibiting their well-being in organizations and job performance. Meanwhile, technological anxiety moderated the impact of job skill demands under AI embeddedness on job embeddedness.
