Artificial intelligence (AI) is not merely reshaping entrepreneurial practice—it is reprogramming its epistemic foundations. The purpose of this research note is to develop a conceptual perspective explaining how AI reconfigures the core assumptions of entrepreneurship. Specifically, it argues that AI transforms entrepreneurship from a human-centered process of discovery and design into a governed socio-technical system. Three foundational assumptions are placed under strain: creativity evolves into hybrid human–AI co-creation, uncertainty becomes partially computable, and agency is reconstituted as governed entrepreneurial judgment. Drawing on recent debates in entrepreneurship and innovation studies, the note reframes entrepreneurship as a practice of epistemic stewardship—one that balances algorithmic precision with moral intention. While AI enables hybrid co-creation across innovation processes, entrepreneurial judgment remains irreducibly human insofar as it entails responsibility and accountability. The argument concludes that the next frontier of entrepreneurship is not technological but philosophical: reimagining innovation as a responsible collaboration between human reasoning and algorithmic intelligence.
