Current Research
Jessica is currently conducting research for her doctoral thesis titled "AI-augmented Creativity in Innovation Teams." The idea that creativity is uniquely human is now being challenged by AI’s ability to produce non-obvious patterns suggesting novel inputs. Creative ideas help organizations adapt to change, solve problems, and maintain a competitive edge in the marketplace and AI’s potential for creativity provide a strategic advantage. It is increasingly clear that organizations who are laggards in adopting AI and in ensuring that employees can effectively work with it may find themselves at a significant disadvantage.
Her research focuses on how the implementation of AI impacts individual and team creativity and will explore the necessary conditions for employees and teams to fully harness AI in creative processes. This research is affiliated with the Norwegian Research Center for AI Innovation (NorwAI) at NTNU, specifically the AI "Innovation Ecosystem" work package. Her supervisors are Nhien Ngyuen and Marta Morais-Storz.
Background
Before starting her Ph.D., Jessica earned her Master's Degree in Innovation and Business Development at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) in Odense. Alongside her studies, she worked as a research assistant and student instructor at SDU's Center for Integrative Innovation. As an instructor, her responsibilities encompassed mentoring Master students in two academic courses offered at SDU and assisting professors in class preparation. As a research assistant, she actively contributed to and co-authored two research papers.
