Abstract

This paper will discuss how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming core HR practices of Human Resource Management (HRM), such as recruitment and selection, performance management, and employee learning and development. As more and more organizations embrace the use of AI tools, the HR processes continue to become more effective, data-based and personalized. The literature adopted by the paper goes ahead to evidence how AI can enhance talent attainment, performance tracking, and appraisal tools and offer custom-made training services. The paper also addresses the practical applications, which are also informed by the recent research findings, to illustrate how AI is aiding the closing of the skill gap, optimizing the productivity of the involved workforce, and aiding the employees in their respective growth. On the definitions of said findings, reasonable recommendations are provided to help HR departments integrate AI in a way that complements human perception and long-term organizational goals.
