Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming HR-from recruiting and performance management to employee relations and compliance analytics. Yet one critical reality remains: AI systems can and will make mistakes. Some errors are technical. Others stem from bias, incomplete data, flawed assumptions, or unpredictable model behavior.
If AI errors cannot be completely eliminated, what does that mean for HR leaders responsible for fairness, compliance, and organizational trust? In this timely and practical session, we will explore the limitations of AI systems, the legal and ethical implications for HR, and the governance structures necessary to use AI responsibly. Participants will leave with a clear framework for balancing innovation with oversight-so they can confidently leverage AI while protecting employees, culture, and the organization.Why you should Attend:

- Understand why AI systems inevitably produce errors and what types of errors are most common in HR applications
- Recognize the legal, ethical, and compliance risks associated with AI-driven HR decisions
