Professor's Joshi research unpacks how digital technologies (including AI) shape and are shaped by the fundamental practices, processes, and strategies of organizing. 

“I am not surprised; neither by the fact that DeepSeek is built by utilizing much fewer resources nor by the fact that their initial model may not look as good as the others that have been there for some time now.
