Abstract

This study examines the effect of ESG disclosure on ESG performance and investigates the moderating role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) adoption in this relationship. The population comprises companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) during 2022–2024. Using purposive sampling, 20 companies with 60 firm-year observations were selected based on the availability of annual reports, GRI 2021-based sustainability reports, and Refinitiv (LSEG) ESG scores. A quantitative approach was applied using secondary data from annual reports, sustainability reports, corporate websites, and the IDX. ESG disclosure was measured using the GRI Disclosure Index, ESG performance using Refinitiv ESG scores, and AI adoption through a text-based analysis of AI-related keywords in corporate reports. The novelty lies in integrating text-based AI adoption measures with ESG disclosure and Refinitiv ESG performance data in an emerging market context. Hypotheses were tested using Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) with SPSS 27 after classical assumption tests. Results show that ESG disclosure and AI adoption do not significantly affect ESG performance, and AI adoption does not moderate their relationship. Thus, AI adoption alone is insufficient to transform ESG disclosure into measurable ESG performance.
