Abstract excerpt

The rapid integration of large language models (LLMs) into organizational workflows raises fundamental questions about the long-term effects of AI assistance on human creative capabilities. This article provides a comprehensive theoretical extension of Sun et al.'s (2025) field experiment, which demonstrated that LLM assistance enhances creative output during use but diminishes subsequent independent creativity—pa...
