Abstract
With the rise and application of artificial intelligence (AI), organizations have begun to introduce AI technology to reduce management costs and improve the efficiency of organizational operations. The team composition of human-computer cooperation is also becoming more and more popular. However, there is limited literature on AI as a team leader, mainly focusing on AI as a team member to collaborate with human employees, or as an assistant in the team to assist human employees. This paper mainly studies the influence of AI as a team leader on team atmosphere and team effectiveness, and explores the moderating effect of team leader performance. We designed two situational experiments to measure the impact on team climate and team effectiveness by manipulating team leadership types and team leadership performance. The results show that AI as a team leader will bring a better team climate than human as a team leader, and there is no significant difference in team effectiveness.
