Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore how AI in Industry 4.0 is impacting work and business, posing ethical concerns. It addresses labor market disruptions, organizational transformation, sustainability, algorithmic bias, data privacy, and job displacement ethics. The report examines how AI adoption might help inclusive economic development and SDGs. Research Methodology: The research uses mixed methodologies, incorporating qualitative and quantitative data. Secondary sources include 2019–2025 academic journal articles, government papers, industrial publications, and international databases. The research uses a systematic literature review, thematic analysis, statistical evidence from robotics adoption databases, and case studies in manufacturing, logistics, and service industries to discover patterns. The integration of theory and practice employs descriptive-exploratory approaches. Results: Results indicate rising global use of industrial robots and AI, with South Korea, Singapore, and Germany exhibiting the highest robot density. AI automates monotonous activities and creates hybrid professions that demand digital and analytical talents. AI-adopting companies are becoming more flexible and data-driven. However, ethical issues such algorithmic bias in recruiting and decision-making, surveillance technology privacy threats, and low-skilled worker job displacement persist. Conclusions: AI has promise to improve productivity, efficiency, and sustainability, but requires strong governance, ethical frameworks, and ongoing reskilling. Without controls, inequities and ethical problems may grow Limitations: The study depends on secondary data and literature evaluation, with minimal original field research for context-specific insights. Contribution: This study advances ethics, management, sustainability, and offers practical AI recommendations for stakeholders.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the influence of consumption values (functional, social, emotional, epistemic, and conditional) on adopting a cashless society while examining the moderating effect of perceived cost and the mediating effect of cashless readiness. Research Methodology: A quantitative research approach was employed, utilizing a convenience sampling method to collect data from 200 respondents through a survey. Statistical analysis techniques such as structural equation modeling (SEM) were likely used to analyze the data and test the hypothesized relationships. Results: The study reveals that functional, epistemic, and conditional values significantly impact cashless readiness, which in turn affects the adoption of a cashless society. Perceived cost is identified as a significant moderator between cashless readiness and the adoption of a cashless society. Additionally, the findings indicate that cashless readiness partially mediates the relationship between functional, epistemic, and conditional values and the adoption of a cashless society. Limitations: A potential limitation could be the use of a convenience sampling method, which may affect the generalizability of the findings to a larger population. Contributions: The findings of this study could be valuable for mobile financial service providers, banking institutions, and governmental organizations in developing strategies to increase the adoption of digital payment systems. It contributes to the existing literature on consumer behavior and technology adoption, specifically in the context of cashless societies and mobile financial services.
