medium positive Why the Valuable Capabilities of LLMs Are Precisely the Unex... ability to commoditize/replicate LLM capabilities via rule extraction
The highest‑value attributes of LLMs may be inherently non‑decomposable into simple, auditable rules, which increases the value of proprietary, black‑box models and strengthens economies of scale and scope for large model providers.
Economic reasoning and theoretical implications drawn from the central thesis; no empirical market analyses provided.
medium positive Why the Valuable Capabilities of LLMs Are Precisely the Unex... value capture by model providers (proprietary rents/economies of scale)
Some LLM capabilities are tacit, practice‑derived, or 'insight'‑like, akin to the Chinese concept of Wu (sudden insight through practiced skill).
Philosophical framing and analogy to the concept of tacit knowledge (Wu); argumentative rather than empirical support.
medium positive Why the Valuable Capabilities of LLMs Are Precisely the Unex... characterization of LLM competence as tacit/insight-like
The economically valuable capabilities of large language models are precisely those that cannot be fully encoded as a complete, human‑readable set of discrete rules.

Policy/managerial implication: organizational structures and incentives (e.g., TMT diversity, ESOPs) are effective levers to sustain managerial attention to employee welfare and mitigate the negative effects of deep AI penetration on ECSR.
Inference from empirical moderator results (TMT diversity and ESOP interactions) combined with theoretical ABV/dual-agent argument; paper includes managerial and policy recommendations based on these findings.
medium positive Attention to Whom? AI Adoption and Corporate Social Responsi... ECSR (and managerial attention as targeted by interventions)
Employee stock ownership (ESOP) moderates the relationship by flattening and right-shifting the inverted U, aligning employee incentives and preserving employee-focused attention as AI adoption deepens.
Interaction terms between AI (and AI^2) and ESOP presence/level show mitigated negative effects of high AI adoption on ECSR and a later turning point; based on panel regressions with controls and robustness checks on the 2,575-firm sample.
Top management team (TMT) functional diversity moderates the AI–ECSR curve by flattening it and right-shifting the peak, delaying and mitigating negative attention shifts from employees to AI.
Interaction of AI (and AI^2) with a TMT functional diversity measure in panel regressions indicates a less pronounced inverted U and a later turning point for firms with more diverse TMTs; analysis uses the main panel (2,575 firms, 2013–2023) with robustness checks.
At low-to-moderate levels of AI adoption, AI increases managerial attention to employees and raises ECSR (human attention gain mechanism).
Positive slope of the estimated AI–ECSR relationship at lower AI values implied by the significant linear AI term in the quadratic panel model; theoretical framing via an attention-based view (ABV) and dual-agent model; empirical results interpreted as consistent with increased managerial attention and higher ECSR at low-to-moderate AI adoption. (Sample: 2,575 firms, 2013–2023.)
