Universities must adopt continuous learning, experimentation and innovation to keep pace with rapid advances in artificial intelligence, Soumitra Dutta, adviser to the SRM Group, said at a symposium held by the Paari School of Business at SRM University-AP.
Speaking at the event, titled “Advancing Management Knowledge in the AI Era: Research Frontiers and Future,” Dutta highlighted links between engineering advances and modern digital ecosystems. He urged developing countries including India to strengthen technological capabilities and research networks, noting that computing infrastructure remains concentrated in a small number of wealthy economies.
The symposium brought together academics and researchers to discuss AI’s effects on management practices, economic models, organizational change and global business. Allan Bird of the Goa Institute of Management and Michael Stevens of Weber State University discussed human capital, leadership and AI’s implications for organizational strategy and decision-making. Speakers also warned against excessive reliance on automated tools and emphasized cognitive engagement and independent thought.
Paari School of Business dean Ashay Kadam said the school is integrating AI into its curriculum and departmental work while training faculty to use the technology in teaching and research. SRM-AP research dean Ranjit Thapa called for research that produces societal benefits beyond academic publication.
The symposium is to be followed by a five-day publishing boot camp for early-career researchers, led by Bird and Elizabeth L. Rose.
