In episode 201, Coffey talks with Jodi Brandstetter about using “design thinking” to effectively integrate AI into HR processes.

They discuss how design thinking focuses on understanding problems from both business and human perspectives; the importance of starting with one specific HR challenge when implementing AI; how AI can assist throughout each stage of the design thinking process; ethical considerations when selecting AI vendors; concerns about job displacement versus job evolution; the value of transparency when implementing AI that affects employees; practical applications like improving communication and automating administrative tasks; security considerations when using AI tools; and the need to continuously test AI tools for bias and effectiveness.
