We discuss when to use AI or HI in the innovation process, using empirical evidence from the platform Venturely to show how AI-based innovation processes support and accelerate innovation. I examine how European scaleups use generative AI in their growth trajectory, highlighting key strategies and outcomes. Lastly, I present a balanced view of the opportunities and risks of AI in business, offering a framework for analyzing digital sustainability. This seminar aims to provide actionable insights into how AI can be effectively integrated into business practices and potential avenues for future research.
