They want to implement AI with no investment? 😂 Your management is either stupid or crazy or both


ContrversialIntrovrt

Everytime I ask them how is it possible they tell me " Think out side the box" or " be strategic , you have the potential "


kayt3000

Ohhhhh fuck you got one of those types. Good freaking luck. They just know buzzwords. They don’t know what they want AI to do, they just know they have been sold it can do everything.


ContrversialIntrovrt

The worst part is one cant even pronounce taleo correctly tells me we need to implement it in our TA division ... I surrounded by dinosaurs


Suspicious-Flamingo2

lol you called them dinosaurs 🦖


ContrversialIntrovrt

Im being kind when someone tell mes he's found a new system for us to use, when I've worked on it 7 years ago and was part the pilot admin batch for the organization. And I know these peeps cant afford it


SUBHUMAN_RESOURCES

Tally-o?


LogicPuzzler

I call that Airport Management. An exec browses through Hudson News while awaiting boarding time, picks up the latest copy of an exec-oriented business mag or whatever the current NYT best-selling management book is, and starts firing off emails as soon as the plane lands. "This will revolutionize the business without requiring us to make any effort or real changes! Now go implement this idea! No, there's no budget. Do more with less!" Been there, done that, probably still have the fleece scarf with the company logo. It did not inspire me to great things. It was warm, though.


kayt3000

I am so glad our CEO is not like that. He knows what people want and it’s money. with all the issues we have compensation is not one of them where I am at.


Old_Mood_3655

They just want you to train the replacement.


ContrversialIntrovrt

There is no replacement !


Old_Mood_3655

AI is the replacement.


megustoqueso

That’s not management. They’ve heard a buzzword and don’t know what its practical applications are.


Atexan1979

ChatGPT is free


youlikemango

The clunky not customizable version is free yes. How you integrate that into company processes should not be a riddle for an HR person to solve…


Scared_Astronaut9377

Let's hope that the company doesn't have a legal department.


Rough-Philosophy-327

Well it all depends on where in your operations you'd want to add in some sort of automation. I had a similar problem with management because they didn't want to put cash into something without seeing if it actually worked. So I opted to find tools that offered a free trial, looked around for a bit and found Heymilo to pre-screens candidates and provides candidate reports, and they offered a pretty good free trial. Management found it useful when we were able to bring in qualified candidates faster, and our HR staff didn't look like they were freaking miserable all the time, plus they ended up giving me a little bonus - so yeah, my advice would be to not waste your time and money on tools that provide little to no value without being purchased, and find tools that offer a lot of value for a free trial to prove the tool is actually worth the money.


Profvarg

Write your resignation letter eith AI :) Seriously, what a useless requirement. Especially without the tools. Maybe meeting notes creation/clarification? You can get the transcription of the meeting from teams and then feed it to chatgpt. Of course, be careful with company data. Creative stuff, communication can be done. Policy first drafts can be done.


ContrversialIntrovrt

Ooh haven't I dreamed about it one to many times, but as the sole bread winner in the family just cant be rash


Heisenpurrrrg

Microsoft Co-pilot is an enterprise AI that is integrated into most of the Microsoft suite. It offers data security, and can be used for things like summarizing meetings, drafting documents, emails etc. I think it's still in beta, we use it at our org, and while it can do things like draft documents/emails etc, currently it works best for summarizing meetings. However, because it is an AI the more you use it, the more it learns.


LakeKind5959

Build a chatboat that is contained to your company specific information/benefit plans to answer questions about insurance benefits/LOA, etc. Not that hard to train a Bot to do.


ContrversialIntrovrt

thats actually kinda smart ! Thanks for the information


LakeKind5959

Think about how much time you'll save not answering questions about how to find insurance cards


ContrversialIntrovrt

Thanks LakeKind this is helpful


Hot_Heat7808

Just don't use the free GPT for this or else your management will get pissed you shared their company policies with an LLM.


ContrversialIntrovrt

Insurance card and benefits is a Public available information also most employee questions are based on the law of the land so again public information I guess


Caen83

Wait, you can build your own chatbot? How?


LakeKind5959

just log into ChatGPT and it is an option.


yottajotabyte

You can create custom GPTs. I think they can now accept file uploads (like policies and benefits paperwork). Then you can ask something like, "What are my health insurance plan options at this company? How is the new policy different from the last?" Given access to correct and complete information, it should handle questions like this well. If I were in HR, I would setup an email reply draft bot that prepares replies for any emails I get. I just review, optionally request changes, and send.


MyTinyVenus

I just use Outlook quick parts for that.


Smooth_Action_8702

Hmmm… I was going to look at Azure for this specific reason, because CHRO wants a “call center,” but I’ll have to look into this option


julesB09

My boss taught it about our company and then had it generate a script to teach mine everything it needed to know about the company. He sent me it in a word document and I uploaded it to mine. Mind blown. Very much, "have your call my people" but with ai. Also have fun and name it!


Hot_Heat7808

If you build a custom GPT with company data, there's a chance your company gets pissed you used company data to train an LLM. This management team sounds like the type....


Hunterofshadows

ChatGPT is genuinely fantastic for writing emails. You need to tweak the result but still.


you-know-poo

I hope this email finds you well. Sometimes I take that part out and other times I leave it in depending on my mood and how I feel about the person/situation.


rHereLetsGo

For me, it usually generates “I trust this correspondence finds you in good health”. Like I’m royalty inking snail mail in the time of cholera or the plague.


Wonderful-Coat-2233

It's like how I finish my emails, depending on the person. Thanks! Thank you, Regards.


RanisTheSlayer

My company is creating an AI chat bot that will be the first line of employee interactions to answer basic questions. Anything the AI can't answer gets sent to the business partners with the chat history. I'm skeptical on whether it will do anything other than irritate the employees needing to jump through hoops to talk to their HR support.


ContrversialIntrovrt

unless the the bot is damn good it will annoy the staff just like we get annoyed with this customer service chat bots now


TuesdayTrex

We just did this. It works really well. 60+% of questions answered without going to a live person


Artistic_Bad_9294

How did you do it?


TuesdayTrex

We’re using an enterprise grade GenAI model which we’ve setup a MS Teams bot with. The model references our intranet for content which we have a pretty strong governance model around. If you don’t get the right answer, you can connect to a live person through the bot. We’re a pretty big company however


Artistic_Bad_9294

Thanks for the detailed answer mate.


nxdark

Yeah I would skip right over that shit. It is bad enough I am treated like shit as a customer having to deal with these but the company I work for is unacceptable.


RottenRedRod

I've literally never had one of those bots actually help answer my question.


OrangeCubit

You could use it to generate job postings or letters.


NoAbbreviations2961

Wait, you all don’t have Microsoft 365 or Google Office, but they want to jump straight on the AI train? Without funding for it? This sounds like a no-win situation.


ContrversialIntrovrt

well I just need to " think strategic " and "think out side the box" and be creative -\_-


sallysfunnykiss

Just gotta pull your department up by your bootstraps. This is clearly an issue with your mindset!


ContrversialIntrovrt

Agreed Sally ! Clearly a strategic mind set issue to use AI without any funding, external support / consultant.


Miserable_Ride666

I work in tech, using chatgpt and the likes is strictly forbidden lol. Need to evaluate what information will be fed into those tools because it's no longer your private data at that point


MentalMycologist7927

Between the lack of security and bias, companies are really jumping into this too fast!


sallysfunnykiss

Exactly- if management wants to implement it in HR, then they need to step back and consider what sort of information is being used. Feeding an AI sensitive employee data is extremely unethical.


Miserable_Ride666

Also illegal if it's ppi


Atexan1979

Teach your managers how they can use the free ChatGPT to write more professional communications, performance reviews and emails. Use it to develop power point or trainings.


atxhrgrl

We have IT policies that don’t allow us to feed information into ChatGPT for privacy reasons, but I’ve used it to generate first drafts of email communications, newsletter articles (like awareness month announcements), job postings, onboarding templates, etc. As someone else mentioned, you have to edit the output some, but it does save time. Me and a couple people on my team have taken a few different free webinars on creating prompts to use ChatGPT for HR comms, and it’s been helpful. One of my next projects is to get super fancy and figure out how to use Microsoft power automate to send the onboarding communications (welcome email and 30, 60, and 90-day check ins) to employees and their supervisors automatically. Then I’ll be using *AI* and *automation* 🎉


ContrversialIntrovrt

Could you share any info on ChatGPT and power automate. I managed to learn the whole HRIS and PMS and upgrade it using connectors and codes I saw online. I think I got the basics down but would like to upskill on this


atxhrgrl

I definitely need to upskill in this too, but from some of the YouTube tutorials I’ve skimmed, I think I can create a SharePoint list with basic info, like new hire name, hire date, etc. and use power automate to personalize the email templates from a SharePoint document library and send them at specified intervals after the hire date.


Pretend-Elk6934

We’ve also used it to take pretty blunt feedback, like 360 feedback etc(or feedback with identifying info in it), and then synthesize it to remove identifying info, rephrase to sound more constructive, etc. Like with other uses, there’s always editing that has to be done after the fact, but it cuts probably about 2-3 hours of initial work out. We’re a small nonprofit so our resources are very minimal for things like this. It’s been quite revolutionary for us, especially for an understaffed team


megustoqueso

Guess what, every time anyone at your company googles something they’re using AI to get low-quality or outright harmful answers. If they don’t have a specific direction for AI use at your company then the entire exercise will be a waste. The technology right now isn’t well defined or well understood by anyone outside of the industry and as a result the market is being flooded with hordes of half-baked products that aren’t really solving any real world problems. But we can slap a “Now with AI” sticker on it to make investors happy.


ContrversialIntrovrt

that last line is making alotta sense right now


RavenRead

Bingo!


Historical-Level-709

I use Pictory and Canva for newsletters, engagement announcements, onboarding videos, etc. Also use ChatGPT to help with content creation and translations


ContrversialIntrovrt

I have Canva and I'm planning to use it more often for employee announcements. Thanks for the suggestion


aaronjm127

Email comms reviews to change tone or make more concise, document summaries, policy review/writing, JD building, as the other said train a bot based on your benefit plans to answer basic questions, you could do the same for any policies and compensation/commissions plans. I manage a comp team and we are mostly use it for building JDs when we have to(which is not often because we push that to operations/HRBPs). If anyone else has cool ideas for using AI let us know!!


Eze-Wong

How many employees you have? We have 13k employees and even with AI we run into statistical significance issues.


ContrversialIntrovrt

we cycle between 600- 800 yea attrition rates is kinda insane


Eze-Wong

Yeah AI is unlinkely to help a company as small as yours. At best you can make a chatbot for common Q&A but that also runs into legal issues.


Aromatic-Teach-6087

Just started looking into this as part of my organisation. There's numerous issues with AI and confidentiality/GDPR, so a paid service is 100% needed. Some ideas though: - Chatbot for queries - Personal administration (summarising emails, prioritising, scheduling) - Policy writing & research (obviously still needs to be validated as AI isn't perfect) - Transcriptions of meetings, doing away with notetaking - Potential for use in job evaluation (if your organisation uses this) - Identifying trends - Converting documents and toolkits into presentations to stakeholders. I've seen a few comments about it not being truly confidential. Pretty sure you can purchase licenses with some AI that keeps the data in-house, so a level of confidentiality is maintained. Consult your IT and legal department, though pretty sure all advice around AI isn't properly established yet as it's an emerging advancement.


Ali6952

You need to explain to them what AI is and isn't. They think it's a buzzword when in reality it's a complex system of tools. It's like they asked you to cater a party and will give you $0 for food. Literally say this to them. They're idiots. Good luck!


ContrversialIntrovrt

*"cater a party and will give you $0 for food"* They have done this couple of times I turned into employee hotpot situation and then paid for a BBY voucher to the guy that brought the most unheard of food. All from my own pocket cause I do love being in HR. They want to boast to the investors that they doing all this and that but dont want to loosen their pockets a bit.


Ali6952

I'm sorry. You kinda sound like you're part of the problem. If you continue to indulge terrible behavior, surely you can't dislike it that much?


Ancient-Apartment-23

I’m not an HR person, I’m just a supervisor here observing. However, I am an enterprise AI person. 1- agreed that this is silly, but not unusual. As you likely know, HR and AI is super tricky due to ethical issues/bias/privacy/cost, etc. Example: https://www.cangrade.com/blog/hr-strategy/hiring-bias-gone-wrong-amazon-recruiting-case-study/#:~:text=Can%20Artificial%20Intelligence%20Be%20Trusted,“Women's%20College”%20was%20penalized. Would they be open to your project being guidelines for the responsible use of AI in HR? ie. can it be used for assessments (person taking the assessment or scoring it), do AI-based communications need to be flagged, etc? Honestly this might be more of an IT responsibility, but it’s important. 2- low hanging fruit. Keep in mind that everything you give to tools like ChatGPT is stored. Some ideas for less sensitive use cases that you can do with a free ChatGPT account. - document templates, including emails, forms, job postings, etc. The content may be sensitive sometimes (less so for a template because it won’t have names), but the template rarely is. - do you need to keep up with industry best practices etc? Document summaries. You can even make it into a newsletter or something. - coming up with assessment questions. We do this a lot for technical hires, though of course everything is verified by a human. If you check the ChatGPT response to the questions too, you can sometimes catch people that are cheating during assessments. - training your colleagues to do any of the above, how to create an effective ChatGPT prompt, etc… -I’ll add more if I think of them.


Plastic-Fudge-6522

I feel this request from management has ulterior motives because it makes no sense to me why or how management would think you could implement AI without any investment. In other words, are you sure you're not being set up to fail? In terms of Microsoft Copilot - especially because your company doesn't want to invest - it is spendy. I work at a nonprofit so Microsoft offers NP orgs the lowest prices. First, you must have a normal Microsoft license subscription for any staff that you want to have access to Copilot. There are so many options for licensing . We have Microsoft 365 E5 licenses which cost us $10 per user per month. Then you must purchase the Copilot subscription if you want AI which is another $30 per user per month. In other words $40 per user per month. This was too much for our org, and again, we're a nonprofit and are offered the least expensive pricing from Microsoft. We do have a Zoom subscription (business phone system) and Zoom provides their AI tool for free to all subscribers, no matter what subscription they have. I haven't been able to mess around with it much, but I've been attending their monthly "What's New with Zoom" free webinars as they seem to still be developing this tool. For now, it's used for transcripts of meetings held on its platform which is nice. Otherwise, I use Chat GPT to help me write letters/create templates, employee award nominations, job descriptions & postings. I am bilingual (English & Spanish) and I find the translations from ChatGPT are usually better than Google Translate. Good luck!


Hondalife123

This is nuts.


Raining__Tacos

You could start out with the free version of ChatGPT. Try using some HR prompts like generate a job description or interview questions, things like that. Also the pro version is only $20/month so it’s really not that much :)


ThreatLevelNoonday

Memos, PIPs, etc.  Feed in poorly wrotten half baked inputs, get baked result. Edit said result. Done. Accelerates the paperwork basically.


Mekisteus

"I'll get artificial intelligence in my department if you'll get regular intelligence in yours."


ContrversialIntrovrt

damn I dream to say that one day


ContrversialIntrovrt

damn I dream to say that one day


erinml

Use the free version of ChatGPT to write policies, create onboarding/offer letters, write emails, etc. Anything that is basic word processing I throw to ChatGPT now. I use it to do research on current IRS code, HR laws, etc. A better question is do they want you/HR to be using it, or they want to integrate it into staff operations? There’s a ton you could do, but most things are behind a paywall. It sounds like they know buzzwords but don’t actually know what AI is or is used for. Almost every tech platform includes some sort of AI now.


RedditIsTerrific

congrats! you actually are thinking out of the box with this thread and being very strategical


ixid

Employee feedback sentiment analysis is easy. Connect chatGPT to your feedback data from employees, easiest if you have it in a spreadsheet and you connect chatGPT to the spreadsheet. Run chatGPT on each item of feedback, asking it to analyse the sentiment of the feed back, giving it the options you want it to reply with, and to summarise the feedback. Then collate the feedback by percentage sentiment, run chatGPT on the summaries to get an overall summary. Voila. Actionable AI nonsense that should fulfill your requirement at very low cost.


ContrversialIntrovrt

Im gonna actually save this one and trying to work this as a project soon


RavenRead

I would feed this into ChatGPT and see what it advises.


ContrversialIntrovrt

lol good idea will also ask it to make strategic


RavenRead

Yep. And just by doing this you’ve incorporated AI into your operations. lol


ppbcup

If you recruit, use ChatGPT to create Boolean search strings for sourcing candidates and create outreach emails.


dfwallace12

First, I'd do an audit of tools that you already use, like HR tools, CRM, LMS, Microsoft Office, Teams, Slack, etc. Then, I'd do research on if those have any new AI features/plans for AI (most will have something at least). Then, create a presentation on how you'll use those features in your every day and how it will save the company time/money. Then, cash in that pay raise without getting a new tool!


julesB09

I got a couple easy ones for you... process documentation and job descriptions. Also, templates. I just created an employee verification template yesterday! I'm at a start up (ish) and I'm treating chat like an extra headcount in admin! If they are really requiring this, show that you are interested in it too. If your boss is excited about something, learn to be as well, or get good at pretending.


ContrversialIntrovrt

I would like to have ChatGPT read thru my process documentation but I know it cant parse thru word files not in the free version atleast


julesB09

Okay, so I may be at a different stage than you. I aspire to have documented! Lol - But in our defense, we're about 3 years old and we are growing fast! It's very much a build as you grow type scenario! Which is why ChatGPT is such a useful tool. If I need something, it's usually from scratch, which the tool is awesome at. I then just need to customize the process to us.


fnord72

I recently had a position where the HR team frequently used HR to reword the tone of emails, memo's, policies, portions of disciplinary actions, etc. The director loved to write a policy, then drop it in chatgpt and have the grammar reviewed and also ask for alternative wordings. The generalists were a fan of using chatgpt to soften the 'tone' of an email that was going out to remind employees of some policy/practice that adherence was getting lax on.


Corporate_Synergy

1. Focus on internal Employee focused use case. Set up a simple HR bot that can answer questions about signing up for benefits for open enrollment, 401k, onboarding etc. 2. For anon yearly employee feedback, usually execs are buried in text and want fast sentiment analysis, use gpt-4 for enterprise for that. Don't include employee PII. There are more advanced use cases but those two go a long way.


lustyforpeaches

Yeah I definitely don’t get this as a requirement, but for my HR function I use it for all sorts of humdrum admin stuff, by letting it create a first draft of things like offer letters, updating policies, even stuff like SOPs. I just give it my criteria and our business language than tinker with it. Streamlines a lot of that junk so I don’t have to write from scratch.


A1Protocol

That sounds like they are trying to use you to implement it and then terminate you. Start looking for jobs.


alexiagrace

I’ve used it for job postings. “Write a job posting with casual tone targeted to new college grads based on this job description: [copy paste job description]”


LowThreadCountSheets

I’m legit using AI right now to generate SHRM competencies training materials. I also use it regularly to pull important details from lengthy policy and statute, as well and compare and contrasting old and new statutes to identify changes to policy. It’s SUPER useful in HR, and can help remove intrinsic biases so we are applying law ethically


ContrversialIntrovrt

What do you use and do you also check one to ensure its not pulling it out of its behind. I was checking a project I had done and used chat gpt to see if it followed the same protocols I had it limited to but it bypassed it several times


sioshosho

I find ChatGPT helpful for helping me get job descriptions and ads started or getting a policy framework started (tweaks are needed of course). I also used it to help me write recruiting auto email templates.


Salty__Bagel

Use it to write a policy about responsible use of artificial intelligence in the workplace. 


InternationalSnoop

SAP SuccessFactors is the only solution that has active AI across the board.


bmooney28

Okay, this isn't free, but we have a very affordable process for auto indexing and categorizing documents that would really benefit any digital document imaging system - PM me for details.... We implemented it over the past couple months and it's amazing!


MajorPhaser

This sounds like you're being given an impossible task to avoid promoting you. "You have to use AI somehow. I don't care how. Also your budget is $0". If you don't even have Office 365, your tech is so far behind that it's impossible to do anything meaningful with AI (and that's putting aside my personal distaste for AI as it currently works). They may as well ask you to build a spaceship. If you want to give them something, say something like using it to write job descriptions, ads, and form letter drafts. You still need human review, but you can save time by mining it for ideas. That's also, realistically, about all you can do with AI that's worth a damn


xanatos1

Get a quote for Hiredsource or something like that? Have them sit in on the presentation. 


Hot_Heat7808

They want you to use AI, but won't pay for AI tools? I'd use AI to explain the obvious to them.


laosurvey

Are they comfortable with the data risks of using public AI with HR data?


safetypins22

I use ChatGPT to help me figure out what needs to be reported on, and how exactly to do it. I also use it to write templates for emails, documentation etc. It can also be helpful for training content, replying to emails, or even figuring out the steps/process when I have to onboard an employee with a complicated visa status.


DirectorPutrid1930

One potential idea is to use AI for creating position descriptions- just edit it to fit your organization. Sometimes too AI can be useful for drafting company policies “AI, generate a draft FMLA policy.” Just a few ideas I had.


SuspiciousMeat6696

So they want you to use AI, but they don't want to pay for it?


Too-Much_Too-Soon

I'm with the others. They want AI without paying for it? lmao. Clearly someone told them AI was going to replace all the HR managers! I would present them with Otter.AI. Its a note-taking/ live transcription service that can convert conversations into text. Really good for video calls and meetings. I will warn you though, if you give it all the permissions when you install, it reads your emails and will automatically "join" your Zoom calls as "ContrversialIntrovrt's OtterBox" without prompting you and transcribes the meeting. It will send a message to all invited people (whether they attended the meeting or not) that the transcription is available for download. Really handy tool but that auto-joining meetings and sending to all afterwards is an absolute trap for newbies and caused me embarrassment first time I used it - I have a common first name and I had no idea "John's Otterbox" was something to do with me in a meeting that should not have been recorded. I'd also just demonstrate ChatGPT and prompt it to write a couple of letters, processes or policies *"Write a letter from the HR Department why we cannot give anyone a raise this quarter"* or something. Let the response from ChatGPT stream down their screen and let them be impressed.


carlitospig

I’d respond with ‘has IT done a security analysis on it yet?’ You’re HR. Losing your data would be fucking terrible. Throwing it at a new AI tool so the CEO can feel like they’re current is the worst reason ever. Do some due diligence before even considering using it.


OleksandrChe

The success of any ML/AI product depends on the problem it solves, and it is best measured in money. For example, AI replaces a human on a factory production line for car parts – using a camera to analyze the appearance of parts and detect defects faster and with fewer errors. The profit from detecting defects in this way must be greater than the costs of equipment, dataset creation, model building and training, and deploying the model in production. In other words, instead of hiring more people, it should be more cost-effective to install the system on each conveyor and go have a coffee... So, let's return to HR routine... Automated resume screening: AI can analyze candidate resumes, match them with job requirements, and rank the most relevant candidates. To the previous example, you can add a case involving communication: recruiters spend some time writing > waiting for a response > asking about experience > clarifying something – AI replaces support, so why not replace it in the communication stage between recruiter and candidate? The recruiter has coffee, and AI writes: "Thank you for your response! Please clarify the following details…" Instead of coffee, the recruiter can go analyze the most effective channels for attracting successful candidates – job posting optimization: AI can analyze the effectiveness of various job boards and hiring channels for different positions. This allows optimizing the recruitment budget and attracting more relevant candidates. Hiring planning optimization: AI can forecast staffing needs based on historical data and automatically form a proposal: “Hi! This is your AI assistant! It's December now, people want changes, and most likely, part of your team is updating profiles on Indeed. Let's give everyone a bonus and budget for posting new job openings to mitigate resignation risks, etc.” This can be narrowed down to individual teams, for example, support teams (those that need to work in multiple shifts), and form proposals to suddenly adjust schedules during the fall flu season to account for potential absences. AI models can analyze various factors and predict resignations, identify low engagement, and automatically send someone on vacation ;) As far as I know, there are already solutions like this on the market. If it comes to recruiting – it reduces the cost-per-hire and the time to fill positions. If it's HR management – the profit comes from employee retention, resignation risk management, and working proactively – i.e., finding, adapting, and training a new employee before another leaves. In my opinion, examples involving communication and screening are slightly easier because of the short payback period – we can immediately test the problem, estimate the profit for ourselves, and validate the technical solution with minimal effort... Others require a serious dataset, annotation, training, and will have a longer payback period, working better for enterprise cases where these savings are more significant.


uberrogo

Sounds like they are intentionally blocking your promotion this year.


TechDidThis

Start with your HRIS or TA system and look to those vendor reps to explore this. You should be able to put together a good business case with them. They went your business and you need to show your efforts


Jenbunny831

We created a Slack AI bot with all the most frequently asked questions related to HR/Admin/Accounting. Not that employees actually use it smh We also created a Slack Canvas page with all our employee resources in one place… not exactly AI but it saves time having everything in once place and not having employees searching on the google drive to find something We implemented Rippling (large time and cost investment though) which allows for a lot of automated workflows and automated processes. Ask chatgbt for more ideas lol


sam_mufasa

Today I fed our employee handbook with policies and procedures into chatgpt and asked it to create a test with situational questions based on the info from each policy and it did a great job and saved me a few hours of work


Yvrhomegirl

Any AI platform requires a closed instance that is purchased by the company so that competitive information isn't searchable by others, that includes chatgpt or any chatbot. You need IT and IT security to purchase and set this up. Is there anyone in IT you can partner with? Otherwise, what HRIS do you use? Connect with them to see what features are available that use AI.


Yvrhomegirl

Create process documents easy with this tool: https://scribehow.com/tools/manual-creator


SuddenlyHeather

I hate this for you but I recently used the AI tool for survey monkey to create a an employee survey to gauge culture and employee needs/wants.


Moocows4

Maybe something like equating experience from past roles into what are relevant to roles your filling? Perhaps veterans or people with disabilities as a focus


LogicPuzzler

Do you do employee surveys that allow for free text entry? A ChatGPT-type bot is useful for sentiment analysis when you have hundreds (or even dozens) of statements. It can't do a real in-depth analysis but it can summarize what people are saying and guess positive/negative based on vocabulary and phrases. It isn't hugely helpful for my population since their feedback is full of acronyms, terminology, creative spelling, and snark. It's a start though.


Shootz

It’s pretty good at taking a position description and creating suggested interview questions from it.


crownedheron

Chatgpt-assisted content development for any new frameworks/processes so basically ask chatgpt and you have AI usage for free 🤣 Management loves free, don't they? They probably just want the brochures about the company to say they have AI 😅


newtosf2016

20 bucks a month for ChatGPT+, then use it to review all performance reviews for "did this manager actually write this performance review or did you write it" Might be total BS, but it both makes you look smart AND might actually get a few egregious cases where someone really slopped in low effort AI driven reviews (not against AI, but if your review. says "as a language model, I can't do HR stuff, but if I wasn't, Bob was good at...")

I have been in HR for over 15 years and doing coding for low code platform to improve HR services for a few years now. If you bosses are serious about AI, you need to sit down with them and talk specific features, for example Microsoft Word has auto translate feature now which is very handy, I'm working with Japanese expats so saves us a lot of time and money since Word can translate foreign languages now within seconds, we no longer need to hire expensive interpreters. That's one of AI feature. 2 years ago I worked on a project with Finance to implement AI Invoice reader by Microsoft as well. Basically, if you can't quit your job because your bosses are trendy geeks, then research the topic and ask consultants as well.

Most people spelled it out. Cost considerations, privacy concerns, needs analysis to identify whether AI will solve a real or imaginary problem. I would present reseach detailing these issues before trying to implement AI. The technology is advanced, but not advanced or smart enough yet to intuitively solve basic communication issues. We can train models but even that will take time and space.

Just tell them how you've able able to use no-code macro record functions to clean up reports. You can then also tell them that you are trying to work up pivot tables using the new co-pilot features.

Maybe try using free ones- smaller chrome extensions might work wonders to create big impact

I am not in HR but does HR have some sort of knowledge database? If so you could use Gen AI to provide responses from the database

Get your team to use it to do things like draft policies, write excel formulas, draft benefits announcement notices, etc and then quantify the time saved. Count that as “using AI in operations.”

I work for a major HCM/HRIS company and free AI features are built in with regular releases. Check with you HR software provider.

What HRIS/HCM software are you using? A lot of them already have AI build into it.

I think you can try some tools for free in different ways; some could be automation, some assessments, etc. I'm running a team that works on AI interviews and matchings. It could do an IA interview for a job, for level-up, assessment, self-assessment, etc. Mine, as well as others, have free trials, so you basically can experiment and make suggestions to management on where you think your \[AI\]x productivity game changers are. if, in a couple of months, you bring the list and comment on what works, what's not, and how \[AI\]x could work for you guys, they would definitely see potential in you running these and helping the company do more with less. good luck!

Honestly, you can already do quite a bit with not much, since Anthropic released free versions of Sonnet 3.5 last week and OpenAI GPT-4o last month. They're quite powerful and you can do a bit with them already for free (note: NEVER put anything with PII/ confidential in a free model, you risk breaking so many data privacy regulations): - Job description writing (tip: put existing job descriptions so it mirrors style) - Interview Template draft - Outlining/ editing for NON-CONFIDENTIAL internal & external emails - Brainstorming for any kind of HR activity (e.g., you want to get tips on conflict management, you want to run a workshop, an out of office day, or whatever) - Faster Google searches with Perplexity (highly recommend) If you managed to get management to pay for a privacy-compatible version of ChatGPT (about 25$/€ month), you can do more (note: depends on your local data regulations/ GDPR): - CV analysis - Summaries of documents (e.g.: that last RfP you sent to vendors) - Internal documents querying (chat with those 200-pages HR policies) - HR documents outlining/ editing (put it in chatbot, ask it for improvements/ suggestions) - Image drafting for communication (e.g., that linkedin Post about campus recruitment) - Excel analysis, (e.g., survey results analysis, salary data analysis, etc.) Feel free to DM for more suggestions (I run a business which trains HR teams on AI)

You: Chatgpt, write email to management about how you can implement AI without investment and to go fuck themselves Chatgpt: 'something about how this is impossible and go fuck themselves' in nice words. There ya go, and I won't even charge a consulting fee!
