Forward looking HR leaders are piloting chatbots now to transform HR, and, in the process, re-imagine, re-invent, and re-tool the employee experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">How does all of this impact HR in your organization? The following ten HR trends will matter most as AI enters the workplace&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The most visible aspect of how HR is being impacted by artificial intelligence is the change in the way companies source and recruit new hires. Most notably, IBM has created a suite of tools that use machine learning to help candidates personalize their job search experience based on the engagement they have with Watson. In addition, Watson is helping recruiters prioritize jobs more efficiently, find talent faster, and match candidates more effectively. According to Amber Grewal, Vice President, Global Talent Acquisition, &#8220;Recruiters are focusing more on identifying the most critical jobs in the business and on utilizing data to assist in talent sourcing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>&#8230;as we enter 2018, the next journey for HR leaders will be to leverage artificial intelligence combined with human intelligence and create a more personalized employee experience.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #800000;\">From DSC:<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Although I like the possibility of using machine learning to help employees navigate their careers, I have some very real concerns when we talk about using AI for talent acquisition.<\/strong> At this point in time, I would much rather have an <em>experienced human being &#8212; one with a solid background in HR &#8212; <\/em>reviewing my resume to see if they believe that there&#8217;s a fit for the job and\/or determine whether my skills transfer over from a different position\/arena or not. I don&#8217;t think we&#8217;re there yet in terms of developing effective\/comprehensive enough algorithms. It may happen, but I&#8217;m very skeptical in the meantime. I don&#8217;t want to be filtered out just because I didn&#8217;t use the right keywords enough times or I used a slightly different keyword than what the algorithm was looking for. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Also, there is definitely age discrimination occurring out in today&#8217;s workplace, especially in tech-related positions. Folks who are in tech over the age of 30-35 &#8212; don&#8217;t lose your job! (Go check out the topic of age discrimination on LinkedIn and similar sites, and you&#8217;ll find many postings on this topic &#8212; sometimes with 10&#8217;s of thousands of older employees adding comments\/likes to a posting). Although I doubt that any company would allow applicants or the public to see their internally-used algorithms, how difficult would it be to filter out applicants who graduated college prior to ___ (i.e., some year that gets updated on an annual basis)? Answer? Not difficult at all. In fact, that&#8217;s at the level of a Programming 101 course.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2018\/1\/23\/16907238\/artificial-intelligence-surveillance-cameras-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Artificial intelligence is going to supercharge surveillance<\/strong><\/a> &#8211;
