Is AI To The Recruiter What Netflix Was To Blockbuster?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the latest buzzword in HR software-speak, and for good reason: It's real and it works. AI is a type of technology automation that leverages machine learning and Big Data to actually learn how to better perform the tasks it is automating. Technology that can make calculated decisions based on logic and reasoning and digitally communicate accordingly? Will AI replace the recruiter? That is a very bold assumption. Did technology replace the need for airline pilots? No, but pilot engagement and how they operate their aircraft has changed radically due to innovations in the technology used to fly planes.
