Learn how new AI-based technologies affect your HR and talent decisions, and the degree to which you should trust in them. 

With the rise of artificial intelligence, algorithms and machine-learning-based technologies, more decisions are being made by computers than ever before. But are those the right decisions? This session will examine the bias in everyday life and how it affects decisions and the tools we use to make them. In this session, you will learn:

  • The landscape of today’s HR technologies that incorporate AI capabilities.
  • How algorithms and machine learning support decision-making across the spectrum of HR, from talent acquisition and succession to learning management.
  • How to identify tasks that are suited to automation and AI tools, and which are best kept in human hands.
  • How to leverage AI tools to make the workplace more human, not less.
