What does AI think of AI as an external enabler (EE) of entrepreneurship? An assessment through and of the EE framework

Recent breakthroughs make Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology a particularly potent enabler of entrepreneurship. Therefore, we use the External Enablement (EE) framework to examine AI’s potentials as enabler of entrepreneurship. In doing so, we involve AI – specifically ChatGPT 4.0 – to enhance the analysis beyond our personal limitations. Through this exercise we provide insights into 1) AI technologies as enablers of entrepreneurship; 2) possible improvements of the EE framework, and 3) ChatGPT’s and similar AI tools’ usefulness for entrepreneurship research more generally.
