Beyond Accountability: When Influence and Decision-Making Diverge in AI-Assisted Organisations

Why publish a paper on SSRN before a journal?
Because some ideas deserve to start a conversation before they become a finished piece of research.
SSRN (Social Science Research Network) is one of the world's leading repositories for working papers and early-stage research. It allows researchers to share new ideas, receive feedback, and stimulate future academic and professional research.
My latest working paper explores a question that I believe organisations will increasingly face as AI becomes part of everyday decision-making.
Rather than asking whether humans remain accountable, I ask a different question:
Can decision influence gradually move towards AI while accountability remains entirely human?
The article
introduces a different perspective on AI-assisted decision-making;
explores the possible separation between accountability and decision influence;
suggests a direction for future research, organisational frameworks, and practical assessment;
invites discussion from both researchers and practitioners.
I hope it contributes to the ongoing discussion around AI go vernance, organisational decision-making, and meaningful human involvement in the age of AI.
I would be delighted to hear your thoughts.
