Abstract:
Human resource functions have been revolutionised in recent times because of the emergence of new advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI). However, evidence suggests that AI and advanced self-learning machines threaten the global workforce entirely and eliminate human interference. From these perspectives, the current study aimed to examine the impact that AI and technological advancement have on human resource functions. An exploratory research design was adopted to understand the subject matter better. Moreover, mixed-methods research was employed to collect and analyse quantitative and qualitative data. The study is unique as it sheds more light on how AI has transformed most human resource functions. The study recommends that organisations continue to invest in AI.
