for AI, where AI systems begin to perpetuate incorrect or outdated information.<\/li>\n<li>According to the researchers, effective long-term AI use hinges on companies preserving and incorporating human expertise alongside AI technologies.<\/li>\n<li>The findings emphasize that corporate decisions which ignore retaining human know-how can jeopardize AI effectiveness over time.<\/li>\n<li>The study, published in the prestigious Academy of Management Review, does not introduce new empirical data but builds a conceptual theory that explains the interplay between AI and organizational knowledge depreciation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How artificial intelligence can cause businesses to lose their knowledge https:\/\/www.digitalinformationworld.com\/2026\/02\/the-ai-knowledge-trap-how-artificial.html Publish Date: 2026-02-26 07:46:00&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":190797,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEjEn0-o4xlJU4Gasi5zC22sak_n5zbmJYxXi-z6AdjWgwQ29KKV6gupUtN2GSoVAnF-bCLAiGM1LvB2ZI-2tC3OXZI5CEjKsB1Wn4B93i5YQ_mRy2jS39Q3STYjWBJnqhfWdK0OUJ_UokJJXfYaDJOVSlRz6x4fVhqHQ1zMvdFuR1ijcKBrNyo3wpZu_988\/w1600\/ai4g.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-190796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190796"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=190796"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190796\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":190798,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/190796\/revisions\/190798"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/190797"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=190796"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=190796"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=190796"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
