Abstract
Exponential technologies such as artificial intelligence, intelligent robots, and the internet of things are transforming organizational structures, providing both opportunities and challenges. This research explores the ethical and sustainable deployment of exponential technologies within organizations. Using a bibliometric analysis of scholarly literature from 2014 to 2024, we identified top papers, journals, trends, and research areas in this field. Our thematic analysis maps the relationships between Exponential Technologies, sustainability, and ethics, with the help of which we proposed a conceptual framework to improve the use of Exponential Technologies in organizations for future studies. This framework emphasises ethical integration, sustainable organizational transformation, and a human-centric approach to Exponential Technology adoption. Recommendations for practice, policy development, and future research emphasize the importance of stakeholder engagement, interdisciplinary collaboration, and Exponential Technology literacy in the era of exponential technologies.
