This article investigates the transformative power of general-purpose technologies (GPTs), focusing specifically on the revolutionary potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to reshape industries and domains, ushering society into a new era of unprecedented progress. Contrary to popular belief—AI has the potential to replace humans; this study emphasizes the pivotal role of strategic responses in shaping outcomes. The importance of early AI adoption is emphasized, and businesses are classified as enablers, users, or ignorers of GPTs, revealing implications for success. Leveraging a compelling case study of the United Parcel Service, demonstrate the transformative power of AI effects on operational efficiency, cost reduction, and environmental sustainability. My argument reframes AI as a superpower, urging active participation in this transformative era and recognizing its potential to amplify human capabilities. I investigate the proliferation of AI tools across professions, allowing individuals to harness AI as users or ascend as enablers, crafting tailored solutions for industries.

Interested in publishing in an IEEE journal, but do not have the time to write a long and in-depth manuscript? IEEE Engineering Management Review (EMR) offers authors the opportunity to submit Technology Manager's Notebook (TMN) articles to share their insights in management of engineering and technology. This is not only particularly designed for industry practitioners but also for researchers who are experts in a field who want to summarize their key insights. We call these evidence-based articles where authors reflect upon their personal experiences on a certain topic. Experience is not necessarily a matter of age but of interesting and useful insights.

We propose a new strategic innovation model based on the risk/reward relationship, which allows to develop a complete, consistent, and coherent theoretical framework that unifies different perspectives on innovation: Its relationship with competitive strategy, the role of the different types and agents of innovation, the role of disruptive technologies in economic growth; and the need for specific policies to build competitive innovation nations. At the public policy level, states should ensure institutional frameworks and initiatives that encourage the emergence of “blue” innovation. At the corporate level, companies should balance their mix of resources to guarantee the portfolio of projects, beyond those that are exclusively aimed at maintaining competitiveness in the conventional “red oceans.”

Our exploratory study investigates identity tensions during the development of luxury artisan ventures. As artisan ventures, entrepreneurs in luxury artisan ventures are strongly embedded in cultural context, yet they also strongly reach out to customers outside their cultural context. As such, identity tensions differ between traditional artisan ventures and luxury artisan ventures. Our insights are gathered by the analyses of primary and secondary data from 11 entrepreneurial ventures. We find several sources of identity tensions that mainly pertain to the venture's deep embeddedness in a socio-cultural context with several cultural elements that juxtapose commercial needs. Besides, strong identity tensions emerge when ventures by international expansion depart from their local embeddedness. The departure from the home socio-cultural context by reaching out to international markets sets the challenges to persevere the cultural kernel but also change product and production elements to serve customers. Our findings contribute new insights on identity tensions that evolve during venturing growth and that are specific to the identity hybridity of luxury artisan ventures.
