The Last HR Department - How AI is Redefining Work, Talent and Control

At the risk of sounding unfashionable in an age of bold predictions, this book argues that HR will still belong, in large part, to humans. Even as AI takes over many tasks, decisions about people, fairness, and consequences still need human judgment.

Much of the work inside HR teams has always been deeply human, even though a large part of the day is spent on repetitive, routine tasks. AI is beginning to take most of that load off HR teams. 

This book looks at how HR teams actually use AI inside organizations today. It walks through practical examples from hiring, onboarding, learning, performance, and retention. It also shows where these tools help, where they fall short, and where AI introduces new kinds of risks. 

More importantly, this book takes a middle ground avoiding both doom and hype. Written for HR professionals, managers, and leaders, it helps you prepare for a machine-assisted workplace where HR goes through big and bold changes, but its core still remains essentially human.
