Artificial intelligence is a charged term- one that has been around, but has taken on new meaning in the last couple of years. As the first crossovers of AI and HUMAN RESOURCES emerge, many issues are coming out. People are both excited and afraid of its implications.
Employees and their managers are afraid of cultural and measurement shifts (and career arcs in general).
Executives are worried about missing out on ways to increase the top and bottom line.
Boards are concerned about threats to corporate strategy and new and unseen risks that could put the company (and them) on the front page of the Wall Street Journal
However, the news isn't all scary and the world is not becoming Skynet yet!
