Introduction to Our "AI in HR" Series
For eighteen months, generative artificial intelligence has made its way forward. It has moved from the laboratory to the boardroom.
No function is more affected by its daily impacts than human resources. Recruitment, skills development, decision support, or corporate culture animation: use cases are multiplying.
However, successful implementation requires method and strategic clarity.
This is precisely the objective of the series of articles you are about to discover on Nexa RH.
8 Milestones to Understand and Act with AI in HR
1. AI Agents Will Automate What We Know How to Ask Them to Automate
We will outline the landscape of autonomous agents. We will explain why the quality of your requests (prompts, objectives, constraints) determines their actual performance. ➡️ Link to the article.
2. Examples of AI Agents in HR
HR professionals want examples to understand. AI Agents do indeed exist. We have identified them among vendors of multi-functional HR-Time-Talent and Payroll solutions, as well as among vendors of cutting-edge solutions. ➡️ Link to the article.
3. Context Engineering: Moving from Simple Prompts to Integrated Verticalized AI
You will see how to enrich a prompt with metadata, sector-specific knowledge bases, and governance rules. This allows building a reliable system specific to HR. ➡️ Link to the article.
4. Microsoft 365 Copilot: Your First Step Towards AI in HR
This step explores the most widespread copilot in office suites. We will discuss its limitations and how to adapt it to HR processes without burdening your infrastructure. ➡️ Link to the article.
5. Managing Your HR Prompt Library
Prompts become assets. We will propose a framework for classification, versioning, and evaluation. This ensures their reusability, compliance, and security. ➡️ Link to the article.
6. Library of 30 HR Prompts
Finally, a concrete collection for 14 profiles of major HR functions: CHRO, HRD, HRBP, OHS, DEI, employer brand, recruitment, training, HRIS, HR Analytics... Thirty robust and ready-to-use prompts, each accompanied by customization advice according to the persona. ➡️ Link to the article.
7. Shadow AI or Ghost AI in HR
This article highlights the undeclared use of AI tools by employees. This includes personal prompts, browser extensions, and free platforms. We will discuss associated risks: sensitive data leaks, decision inconsistencies, bias, and regulatory non-compliance. We will detail a four-step method to regain control. This includes mapping actual usage, risk assessment, proposing official alternatives, and establishing continuous incentive and control mechanisms. ➡️ Link to the article.
8. AI Governance in HR
Intended for HR leaders, this section proposes a governance framework. This includes strategic vision, structure (AI committee, roles and responsibilities), data policies, ethics, compliance, and performance indicators. You will find key dashboards (data quality, use case ROI, risk reduction). A progressive deployment plan will allow aligning AI with organizational objectives while preserving employee trust. ➡️ Link to the article.
