During this academic event Marleen will talk about her research projects on AI@Work and in particular about using a holistic practice-based perspective as well as the use of ethnographies to study how AI is developed, introduced and used in organizations. She will include the lessons that she and her colleagues have learned while getting access, study the phenomenon from various angles and get published. If time permits, she will also briefly touch upon the new wave of generative AI and what research questions and methodologies are needed to study its use in the context of work.

Marlene Huysman holds a chair in Knowledge and Organization and is Founding Director of the KIN Center for Digital Innovation at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. She studied Sociology of Work and Technology and has a PhD in Business Economics on the topic of Organizational Learning and IT.

Her research has been published in various international journals and books.
