Ep 563: How Will AI Change TA? (Live at RecFest)
Oct 27, 2023•33 min•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
This time last year, most of us hadn't heard of generative AI, but it has dominated our industry discourse in 2023. The dramatic emergence of generative AI has illustrated how fast disruption is accelerating and has made us think deeply about the future of talent acquisition.
Back in July at RecFest, Tony de Graaf, Global Director of Hiring Success at SmartRecruiters, invited me to join him for a fireside chat about the potential impact of generative AI on TA. Even though three months is a long time in AI, this is still a very relevant discussion where we attempted to unpick what is happening and understand how AI is shaping the future of talent acquisition.
In the interview, we discuss:
The AI hype cycle
Does AI take away tasks or jobs?
The pressure for change that is coming from the top of organizations
Strategic workforce planning and hiring for future skills
Moving from being operational to being strategic
The transformation of marketing
Democratized access to technology
Is this the end of recruiting norms that we take for granted?
Being relentlessly open-minded and questioning everything
The future workforce talent and skills crisis
