基于高阶理论，以2014～2023年A股高新技术企业为样本，探讨AI领导力对数字化创新的影响效应。研究表明：AI领导力对企业数字化创新具有正向影响，创业导向和组织惯例在其中起中介作用，高管政治关联和企业适应能力均强化了AI领导力对数字化创新的正向影响。进一步研究发现：①从数字化创新类型看，AI领导力促进数字化产品和流程创新，但与数字化商业模式创新无显著关系；②从动态视角看， AI领导力对数字化创新的正向影响存在时间连续性，但影响效应随着时间推移而逐渐减弱；③在行业竞争互动更激烈、数字基础设施更完善以及技术人力资本更充足的情境下，AI领导力对数字化创新的促进效应更显著。

Based on upper echelons theory, this study takes A-share high-tech enterprises from 2014 to 2023 as a sample to explore the impact of AI leadership on digital innovation. The results show that AI leadership has a positive impact on corporate digital innovation, with entrepreneurial orientation and organizational routines serving as mediating variables. Both executive political connections and corporate adaptability strengthen the positive impact of AI leadership on digital innovation. Further research reveals that: ①From the perspective of digital innovation types, AI leadership promotes digital product and process innovation but has no significant relationship with digital business model innovation. ②From a dynamic perspective, the positive impact of AI leadership on digital innovation exhibits temporal continuity, yet the impact gradually weakens over time. ③In contexts where industry competitive interaction is more intense, digital infrastructure is more developed, and technological human capital is more abundant, AI leadership has a stronger promoting effect on digital innovation.
