No more human resources: AI invades the workplace, bot becomes the new hiring manager

It's the buzzword that's taken over most human resources (HR) conferences. At last year's HR Technology Conference and Expo in Las Vegas, several companies touted the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into their recruiting products. Back home, the 2018 SHRM HR Tech Conference, held in Hyderabad in April, saw key sessions on how AI is going to be a driving force in HR functions. Their next conference in Chicago, held in June, had sessions on how to use AI to better understand employees. AI, or the ability of machines to imitate the human mind, is invading the workplace.
