The Psychological Costs of Artificial Intelligence Adoption in Software Engineering

The article examines the psychological costs that software professionals face when organizations adopt artificial intelligence (AI) in software engineering workflows. Through a case study involving 21 interviews at a large software development services company, the authors identify several negative impacts—accountability anxiety, craft identity disruption, erosion of meaning and satisfaction, increased cognitive load and workload, and uncertainty distress. They also describe how practitioners cope by restoring control, adopting protective adaptations, or absorbing the costs, arguing that AI adoption should be viewed as a human transition rather than merely a technological or organizational change.

Measuring AI Leadership: Development and Validation of a Multidimensional Measure for AI-Native Organizations

The article introduces the AI Leadership Battery, a new measurement tool comprising 36 behaviorally specific items organized into 11 theory-specified content families. The authors followed rigorous scale‑development procedures—including deductive item generation, content validation, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, and multiple validity tests—to establish the Battery’s content, multidimensional structure, reliability, and distinctiveness from related constructs. The measure demonstrates incremental predictive value for organizational outcomes such as growth, decision speed, customer response, team performance, work experience, security, and AI adoption.

Understanding Operator Attitudes Toward AI-Supported Decision Making in Maritime Operations

The study surveyed maritime professionals on their attitudes toward AI‑supported decision assistants in collision‑avoidance scenarios. Results show a generally positive disposition toward maritime technology, stable trust across scenarios, and nuanced, scenario‑sensitive ratings of explanation quality. Open‑ended feedback highlighted the importance of decision‑support, situational awareness, and confidence‑building, while raising concerns about AI reliability, over‑reliance, and loss of expertise.

The Vibe Shift in Software Engineering: Evaluating AI-Led Conversational Programming for Performance, Cognition, and Responsible Adoption

The study evaluates Vibe Coding, an AI‑led conversational programming paradigm that lets developers generate software via natural‑language interaction with large language models. In a mixed‑methods experiment with 30 participants, Vibe Coding improved development efficiency—reducing task completion time by 27% versus traditional coding and 12% versus AI‑assisted coding—while also yielding a good usability score (SUS = 71.4) and moderate cognitive workload (NASA‑TLX = 55.5). However, the gains came with trade‑offs: lower maintainability indices, higher security vulnerabilities, and themes of trust calibration, loss of control, and prompt‑engineering strategy emerged, leading the authors to propose a three‑pillar framework for responsible adoption.

Rethinking Data Quality for AI-Driven Systems: Evidence from Practitioner Interviews

The study examines how practitioners in AI-driven systems define, assess, and manage data quality, revealing six key themes. It highlights shifts in traceability, the use of models as quality assessors, and the emergence of new data objects such as agent context and synthetic data. The research proposes a lifecycle assurance framework to provide evidence that data supports specific AI claims throughout model behavior, judgments, and agent actions.
