The integration of Generation AI (GenAI) technologies has become increasingly prevalent across various HR functions. From talent acquisition to learning and development, from total rewards and wellness to employee experience – GenAI is being discussed at every facet of the employee lifecycle. According to PredictLeads, a research firm, says about two-thirds of S&P 500 firms have posted job adverts mentioning AI.

However, amidst the rise of AI advancements, it's crucial for HR leaders to discern between trends and impactful strategies. Are today’s leaders able to articulate the difference?

Initial conversations with HR leaders as part of the People Matters flagship State of HR Industry 2024 research study, HR leaders are looking beyond the hype to create meaningful impact through GenAI integration. Many have begun experimenting with GenAI across specific HR functions but remain divided on its overall HR impact.
