ABSTRACT

With the rapid development of information technology, artificial intelligence is more important in the transformation and innovation of enterprise knowledge management. By combing the relevant theoretical foundations and the support mechanism of AI technology for organizational ambidexterity, this paper finds that AI not only enhances the dynamic ability of enterprises in terms of data perception, knowledge integration and collaboration, but also enables enterprises to have a dynamic balance between knowledge exploration and utilization in an uncertain environment by constructing a support mechanism at the cognitive, structural and behavioral levels. At the same time, this paper points out the problems of scattered research frameworks and single methodological paths. This paper systematically analyzes the role of AI on the ambidexterity of organizational knowledge, and also provides a theoretical basis and practical enlightenment for enterprises to formulate the integration scheme of AI and knowledge strategy.
