AI substitutes many routine tasks, including both manual and cognitive/rule-based activities, disproportionately affecting middle-skill occupations.
Task-based substitution reasoning within SBTC framework and cross-sectoral task analysis. The paper provides conceptual synthesis rather than presenting new microdata or quantified task-level estimates.
Key implementation challenges include data quality and integration, model interpretability, cybersecurity and privacy, regulatory/compliance uncertainty, skills gaps among accounting professionals, and implementation costs.
Identified by the paper through literature review and practitioner reports; these are presented as recurring barriers rather than quantified with a specific sample.
Many studies on serious-game DSTs are small-scale or experimental, and long-term impact data on behavioral change and emissions outcomes are sparse, limiting generalizability.
Review of the literature summarized in the chapter showing predominance of case studies, prototypes, and short-term evaluations rather than longitudinal or large-sample studies.
Ensuring scientific validity of game models, scaling co-design processes, measuring real-world behavioral change, and aligning incentives (policy/subsidies, markets) are remaining challenges to using serious games for DST uptake.
Chapter discussion of limitations and gaps identified in the reviewed literature; absence or sparsity of long-term validation studies and large-scale co-design implementations documented in existing research.
Current uptake of DSTs for net zero remains limited because of issues of trust, usability, lack of evidence linking actions to farm profitability, and poor integration into farmer workflows.

Using LLM participants without rigorous validation can bias external validity and causal inference in economic research.
Review documents cognitive misalignments and distortions that can bias estimated behaviors, preferences, or treatment effects; authors highlight this as a risk.
Overfitting/contamination: LLMs can reproduce pre-training or fine-tuning data (stochastic parroting) and leak training-set content into outputs.
Multiple reviewed studies documenting examples of content reproduction and data leakage; categorized as overfitting/contamination in the review.
Misleading believability: LLM outputs may look plausible but be incorrect or unrepresentative, risking overconfidence in synthetic data.
Reported instances in the literature and organized failure taxonomy describing plausible-looking but inaccurate synthetic responses.
Distortions: LLM outputs can exhibit systematic biases relative to target human distributions.
Empirical findings across reviewed studies showing output distributions from LLMs that deviate from human sample distributions; aggregated in the distortions failure category.
Cognitive misalignments: LLMs differ from humans in reasoning, goals, and bounded rationality, which can alter behavior in economic and strategic tasks.
Multiple studies in the review reported systematic differences in reasoning and goal-directed behavior when comparing LLM outputs to human participants; coded under the cognitive misalignment category.
Major failure modes limiting synthetic participants as direct substitutes for humans are: cognitive misalignments, distortions, misleading believability, and overfitting/contamination.
Standardized taxonomy developed by coding the 182 studies into generalizable indicators and organizing failure types into four categories.
The information-theoretic uncertainty measure provides a mechanism-level explanation for why deception value falls as transparency increases (residual uncertainty explains utility changes).
Analytical linkage in the model connecting the entropy-like residual uncertainty metric to equilibrium utility changes; theoretical argument and derivation in the paper.
The value of deception degrades (falls) as the true system state becomes more observable; this degradation is quantifiable via the price-of-transparency metric.

The paper derives closed-form bounds and break-even conditions that delineate when deception is ineffective due to cost or detectability.
Theoretical proofs and closed-form inequalities presented in the analytical section (derivations of bounds and break-even conditions).
No evaluated program reported Kirkpatrick‑Barr level‑4 outcomes (organizational change, patient outcomes, or sustained metacognitive mastery).
Reviewers mapped reported outcomes from all 27 included programs and found none that demonstrated organizational-level impacts or patient‑level outcomes (level 4).
Because the design is cross-sectional and sampling purposive/geographically constrained, causal inference and generalizability are limited.

Paper highlights this trade-off in its challenges section; discussion-based evidence rather than quantified security assessment in the summary.
Integration complexity with legacy ERPs and heterogeneous vendor ecosystems is a significant implementation challenge.
Paper lists this as a challenge/limitation based on pilot experience and analysis. No quantified measure of integration effort is provided in the summary.
EPC projects feature milestone-based payments, complex stakeholder flows, and large working-capital needs that strain traditional on-premise ERPs.
Problem context statement presented in the paper; consistent with commonly reported characteristics of EPC projects. The summary does not cite empirical industry-wide data.
If deployed without mitigation, GenAI CDS risks widening disparities by performing worse on underrepresented groups or being unequally distributed across resource-rich versus resource-poor settings.
