I spent 2 days walking the show floor at HR Tech in Vegas so you didn't have to. If you thought AI was going to take its time to disrupt HR, you will want to read on. Here is what I learned... Most my time was spent walking the exhibit hall, talking to vendors and watching as many product demos as I could. Spending a few hours absorbing the industry as a whole beats visiting 100 HR software company websites all day long. Most companies have limited booth space so they have to be very specific about what messaging they use to grab your attention. For all those that didn’t have a chance to go, here’s a summary of where I see the HR tech industry today. 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 Almost every single booth was about AI. If you didn’t know you were at an HR tech conference you’d think you’d stumbled into an AI one. There was already some counterprogramming with talks like “The future of HR other than AI.” 𝗪𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗿 (𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲) While everyone was talking about AI, very few folks were saying what it would do for your team. It feels like a bunch of companies are trying to scoop up buyers who feel pressure from their leaders to “do some stuff with AI”.  I suspect 2025 will be the year everyone gets serious about AI and puts organized evaluations of AI projects in place with measured results. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱 HR teams are being asked to drive employee adoption of HR but they themselves are still figuring out where AI gets the most leverage. HR teams are going to have to make some investments in their own projects to get experience with AI technology to become credible AI transformation leaders.
