Using project-level clinical trial data, we find that pharmaceutical firms&#8217; AI investment, on average, does not improve trial efficiency or financial prospects. We identify the contexts where AI adds value and when it does not. Overall, complementary human expertise, balanced regulation, and optimization objective clarity are critical for realizing AI&#8217;s potential. When these factors come together, AI can improve efficiency and financial prospects of clinical trials, which in turn enhances social welfare. Our analysis addresses an emerging question: not whether firms should adopt AI, but how they can do so effectively.<br \/>\n(<a href=\"https:\/\/papers.ssrn.com\/sol3\/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5691523\">Please click here to see further information of this paper.)<\/a><\/p>\n<h5>\u767b\u58c7\u8005 \/ Speaker<\/h5>\n<p>\u30b7\u30e7\u30fc\u30f3\u30fb\u30ab\u30aa(Sean Cao)<br \/>\n\u30e1\u30ea\u30fc\u30e9\u30f3\u30c9\u5927\u5b66\u8cc7\u672c\u5e02\u5834\u306e\u305f\u3081\u306eAI\u30a4\u30cb\u30b7\u30a2\u30c1\u30d6\u7814\u7a76\u30bb\u30f3\u30bf\u30fc\u6240\u9577\u30fb\u5171\u540c\u5275\u7acb\u8005\u3002\u30d5\u30a1\u30a4\u30ca\u30f3\u30b9\u306b\u304a\u3051\u308bAI\u306e\u5fdc\u7528\u306b\u95a2\u3059\u308b\u4e16\u754c\u7684\u306a\u7814\u7a76\u8005\u3002&#8221;Man vs. Machine to Man + Machine: The Art and AI of Stock Analyses&#8221;\u3084&#8221;How to Talk When Machines are Listening: Corporate Disclosure in the Age of AI&#8221;\u306f\u3001Journal of Financial Economics \u3084Review of Financial Studies\u3068\u3044\u3063\u305f\u30c8\u30c3\u30d7\u30b8\u30e3\u30fc\u30ca\u30eb\u306b\u63b2\u8f09\u3055\u308c\u305f\u3060\u3051\u3067\u306f\u306a\u304f\u3001\u63b2\u8f09\u8ad6\u6587\u306b\u5bfe\u3059\u308b\u8cde(Fama-DFA\u8cde\uff08JFE\uff09,Michael J.
