How does human-AI collaboration task complexity affect employee work engagement? The roles of humble leadership and AI self-efficacy

The findings reveal the inhibitory effect of HAI-C task complexity on employees' work engagement. From the two dimensions of job resources and personal resources, it explores corresponding mitigation mechanisms, as well as the contextual and psychological intervention mechanisms involved in how individuals evaluate job demands. This provides novel theoretical perspectives and practical implications for understanding the practical value of human-AI collaboration in organizational contexts and for enhancing employees' work engagement within human-AI collaboration frameworks.

Abstract

The findings reveal the inhibitory effect of HAI-C task complexity on employees' work engagement. From the two dimensions of job resources and personal resources, it explores corresponding mitigation mechanisms, as well as the contextual and psychological intervention mechanisms involved in how individuals evaluate job demands. This provides novel theoretical perspectives and practical implications for understanding the practical value of human-AI collaboration in organizational contexts and for enhancing employees' work engagement within human-AI collaboration frameworks.
