Abstract |
The increase in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace has introduced changes to traditional working environments. However, these are changes not only to employee productivity but also to how employees feel and think about their work. Based on prior research that has suggested connections between employees’ perceptions of AI and their emotions and thoughts at work, the present study tested a moderated mediation model in which the perception of AI opportunity is indirectly related to job insecurity via employee hope, with tenure as a moderator. Data obtained from 290 Korean full-time employees illustrated that the perception of AI opportunity was negatively related to job insecurity through hope acting as a mediator. In addition, this indirect relationship was found to be dependent on the moderating role of tenure. Specifically, at lower levels of tenure, the aforementioned indirect relationship was statistically significant, but at higher levels of tenure, this indirect relationship was no longer found to be statistically significant. The implications, limitations, and future research directions of this study are discussed. |
