Study Finds AI Makes Corporate Earnings Presentations Uniform

A study published in Academy of Management Proceedings reveals that companies using AI to draft earnings presentations are sounding increasingly alike. Researchers found that while prepared presentation texts show high levels of linguistic convergence, live Q&A sessions remain distinct due to their spontaneous nature.

Lead researcher Jujun Huang notes that this stylistic uniformity may negatively impact market reactions, as investors perceive standardized disclosures as less informative and lacking firm-specific details. While AI can improve communication efficiency, the study suggests that over-reliance on these tools may smooth away the unique voice essential for corporate credibility.
