Abstract

Artificial intelligence is a lifeline for government and commercial organizations in today’s technologically advanced world. Artificial Intelligence has completely taken over the lives of working professionals, organizational policies, and work culture; however, it has become a threat to Indian public and private organizations. We addressed this problem by conducting a systematic literature review to illuminate the Artificial Intelligence Threats to Indian Public and Private Organizations. Systematically review empirical published English language articles from April 8, 2015, to April 8, 2025, in Scopus, Web of Science, PsycNet, PubMed, and a random Google search using the appropriate filter. Twenty research studies remained after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria to the identified eight hundred ninety-five publications. The present study formulates nine major themes such as cybersecurity vulnerabilities and fraud in financial institutions, privacy, security, and surveillance-related threats in the workplace, systemic weaknesses in cyber threat response, threats of fake news and misinformation, ethical challenges and legal gaps amplify threats for governance, socioeconomic exclusion due to cybersecurity threats, cybersecurity threats promote bias, exclusion & structural inequality, human resource & skill deficiencies, organizational readiness and resistance. The findings from this research express deep concern about the Indian public and private organizations, to analyze artificial intelligence threats, to understand the pros & cons of artificial intelligence threats, & to use protective and defensive strategies against artificial intelligence threats in the workplace.
