CIST 2025 welcomes original research in all areas of Information Systems and related fields, especially those that seek to address issues related to the conference theme: "Amplified Intelligence: Economic, Work and Societal Implications".

The development and deployment of intelligent technologies has grown at breakneck pace, with the aim of enhancing human cognition, creativity and problem-solving. The implications of these and related technologies are multifaceted and are being felt across various spheres of life. CIST 2025 seeks to facilitate discourse on the implications of intelligent technologies and human intellect for the economy as a whole, people's work and their personal and social lives. Economic growth and job growth, automation and augmentation of white collar and blue collar work, learning and skill development, and social interaction all represent domains in which the implications of technology-enhanced human intellect are ripe for deep exploration and sensemaking.

We invite diverse theoretical perspectives and rigorous empirical approaches to explore topics such as the cognitive and social impacts of amplified intelligence, novel architectures for human-AI collaboration, ethical considerations in augmenting human intellect, and the transformative potential of these technologies across various domains. Your submissions will contribute to a vibrant exchange of ideas on the development of novel human-computer collaboration paradigms.  We aim for a broad set of the Information Systems community to be represented in CIST 2025.

Join us for an in-person conference experience in the vibrant city of Atlanta. Paper submissions open on May 15, 2025, with electronic submissions being accepted. For updates on registration, submission guidelines, event logistics, and important dates, please visit our official website.
