AI is not replacing HR. It's exposing which parts of HR were never adding much value to begin with.
HR has evolved before: from personnel administration, to business partnering, to strategic advisory. AI is the next inflection point, and it is moving faster than the last two combined. It is already reshaping how HR teams handle recruiting, employee data, policy drafting, and workforce planning.
This talk places today's AI moment inside that longer arc of HR's evolution, so audiences understand not just what's changing, but why, and what enduring, distinctly human work will only become more valuable as AI takes over the rest.
