Abstract

This study explores the impact of artificial A-share-listed Chinese companies from 2000 to 2022. The findings indicate that AI significantly enhances intelligence (AI) on corporate green transformation (GX) using data from corporate GX, a conclusion supported by multiple robustness checks. Heterogeneity analyses reveal that AI's positive influence is more pronounced in older firms, politically connected companies, nonheavy-pollution industries, and organizations with higher levels of GX. This study contributes a new explanatory perspective on how businesses can leverage AI to advance GX and provides a theoretical foundation for further research and development in AI-driven corporate sustainability initiatives.
