Methodology¡ªQualitative research was undertaken to deeply investigate and explore the value co-created through people¡¯s interactions with CAs. A total of 32 interviews were conducted in three phases. The interview data were analysed using MAXQDA 12. Results¡ªThe results of this study indicate that most of the users use Apple¡¯s Siri, Amazon Eco or Google Home as their CAs and that people¡¯s interactions with CAs are influenced by their trust in and relative advantages of using CAs. The results also indicate that a diversity of value, such as enhanced communication, better task management, enhanced information retrieval, enhanced learning and better data-driven decisions, is co-created through interactions between people and CAs. Implications¡ªWe developed a service-system framework in which CAs are considered as actors and introduced the concept of ¡®autonomous agency¡¯ for controlling and coordinating people¡¯s interactions with CAs. Originality¡ªThis is the first study on the value co-creation from people¡¯s interactions with CAs (artificial-intelligence-based systems) by proposing a service-system framework in which CAs are considered as actors %K Autonomous agency %K cognitive assistants (CAs) %K co-creation of value %K trustworthiness %K relative advantages of innovation %K service systems %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2394964318804689
