The Landscape of Generative AI in Information Systems: A Synthesis of Secondary Reviews and Research Agendas

The paper reviews secondary studies and research agendas on generative AI (GenAI) in information systems, synthesizing evidence from 28 selected papers. It identifies GenAI’s transformative benefits—productivity, innovation, personalization, and democratized expertise—while highlighting challenges such as technical unreliability, ethical risks, and governance gaps. The authors propose a research agenda that shifts IS scholarship toward shaping the co‑evolution of AI capabilities with organizational routines, societal values, and regulatory institutions, emphasizing hybrid human‑AI ensembles, situated validation, design principles for probabilistic systems, and adaptive governance.

Position: Current Model Cards Are Insufficient for Downstream Governance of Open-Weight Foundation Models

The paper argues that current model cards are inadequate for governing open‑weight foundation models (OWFMs). By analyzing 500 Hugging Face model cards, it identifies safety gaps in areas such as model heritage, alignment provenance, and observed behaviors. The authors propose a multi‑layered governance framework that combines model cards, acceptable use policies (AUPs), and licenses to create a more comprehensive safety artifact.

Clarus: Coordinating Autonomous Research Agents toward Web-Scale Scientific Collaboration

arXiv:2606. 30246v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing autonomous research agents can support parts of the research process, but most systems still treat research as either an isolated assistant task or a closed workflow.
