Brainfood Live On Air - Ep335 - What Happens To Recruitment When Everyone Has a Co-pilot?
By Hung Lee
WHAT HAPPENS TO RECRUITMENT WHEN AI IS YOUR COPILOT?
2025 will turn out to be the year when AI Agents mainstreamed into the recruiting profession. We're going to move past the semantic conversations on what is or is not 'Agentic AI' and simply get on with working with software which is going to do a lot of the heavy lifting work for us.
I think we will be surprised in two ways: how effective these AI agents are in delivering results and how much wider a scope they will end up having, on many parts of the hiring funnel.
The question needs to asked: what does this mean for Talent Acquisition? What does our function look like when every recruiter - every hiring manager - has a hiring co-pilot? Talent Acquisition, as well as the wider Human Resources function, urgently need to centre the discussion on what the 'human value added' really is when it comes to creating great organisations.
We're going to do taking on the hard conversations in today's debate on the future of recruitment when everyone has a copilot.
- General vs Verticalised AI Agents
- What can Verticalised AI Agents do today
- What level of performance by AI Agents are required for work to be transferred?
- AI ethics & legislation - are they paper tigers?
- What is the human value added?
- When does low cost mass produced 'Good enough' beat high cost, custom made, artisanally produced?
- Human Value Added - what is this, can we articulate it?
- What gets automated - expert or non-expert, routine or episodic?
- Do we even control this, or do vendors determine what tasks get automated?
- Humans-in-the-loop - how do we make this substantive, rather than rubber stamp?
- Under what circumstances do we believe a human can / should veto AI recommendation?
- How do Talent Acquisition professionals need to reposition in with the advent of effective AI Agents?
- Do we need to talk about Capitalism?
