Recorded claims

Each claim states what the inspected source says, at the recorded location—bounded by its scope and graded by its confidence. Nothing here is a synthesis across works.

The abstract describes a realist synthesis of 27 peer-reviewed empirical studies from 2018 through June 2025 on AI-mediated B2B alignment, identifying technology-operational, relational-social, and governance-structural pathways plus failure modes including power-asymmetry amplification, verification bottlenecks, and vendor lock-in.

Boundaries

Limitations & independence

Recorded at coding time, carried with the work forever. A claim without its limits is not evidence.

Recorded limitations

  • abstract-level evidence only; full text not inspected
  • the rendered SSRN abstract begins mid-sentence; no missing lead-in was reconstructed

Source independence
