AI has potential to solve some of the most entrenched challenges in employee experience, but reaping the benefits requires navigating complex concerns about privacy, governance, ethics, and data accuracy. HR leaders are caught in the middle—under pressure to innovate and adopt novel AI-powered products, but without clear guidance or established processes to evaluate these new solutions.
If you’re asking yourself which concerns are valid, what’s being overlooked, and where to even begin, we’re here to help.
In this fireside chat, our expert speakers will provide candid, advisor-level answers to the top questions and concerns they hear from HR leaders.
- How to think about AI product evaluation strategies that balance innovation with risk management and compliance,
- The current landscape of AI-powered solutions for employee experience, and predictions for what’s next, &
- The questions HR leaders should ask vendors about data privacy, model training, and efficacy.

As thought leaders who advise some of the world’s largest enterprises, Joseph Freed, Chief Product Officer at Perceptyx, and Stacia Garr, Co-founder and Principal Analyst at RedThread Research, have unique insight into the evolving role of AI in HR, from common missteps to proven strategies and the critical questions that often go unasked.
