Ep 576: Generative AI - A TA Progress Report

Recruiting Future with Matt Alder

It's been a year since Generative AI burst onto the scene and took over the entire TA conversation for 2023. Some of the predictions made back then about its immediate impact on the world of work were out there, even for something that clearly has so much disruptive potential.

So, one year on, where have we got to? What are the genuine use cases, what is still hype, and how will AI actually transform talent acquisition over the next few years?

My guests this week, Adam Godson, President and Chief Product Officer at Paradox and Yael Florenthal, VP of Product at Paradox, are the perfect people to answer these questions.

In the interview, we discuss:

• How AI has evolved in the last six months

• Slow gains but clearer potential

• Generative AI versus Conversational AI

• What AI can and can't do in the context of Talent Acquisition

• Where is adoption the quickest?

• TA process re-engineering

• What will things look like in two years and five years?

• Emotional work versus repeatable tasks

• Implications for recruiters and their careers

• AI and Job Seekers

• Advice TA leaders on AI strategy

• What progress can we expect in 2024?
