Emanuel De Bellis serves as a Visiting Professor at Rotterdam School of Management's Department of Marketing Management, focusing on the behavioral implications of artificial intelligence in organizational contexts. His current research examines human responses to AI-driven assessment systems within professional environments.

De Bellis specializes in the intersection of artificial intelligence and social sciences, with concentrated expertise in organizational behavior, decision science, and human resources management. His work investigates how AI tools reshape candidate behavior during recruitment processes, explores ethical dimensions of algorithmic decision-making, and analyzes the tension between human creativity and automated evaluation systems. This research draws extensively from cognitive psychology, behavioral economics, and marketing theory to understand human adaptation to AI-mediated environments.

His 2025 publications in Harvard Business Review and PNAS demonstrate a cohesive research trajectory examining behavioral modifications under AI assessment. These studies reveal how job candidates strategically alter their conduct when evaluated by algorithms, with significant implications for HR practices and organizational policy. The work establishes critical connections between artificial intelligence applications and fundamental social science principles, highlighting practical consequences for industry stakeholders while identifying regulatory considerations for AI deployment in human evaluation systems.
