AI note-takers and workflow tools are becoming increasingly common in the workplace, but are companies putting the right safeguards in place? Join host Wendy Sellers and guest Kevin Williams as they discuss the risks of adopting AI without clear policies, employee training, and management oversight. Learn why HR needs to be involved early to help protect employee trust, maintain appropriate documentation, and reduce potential compliance concerns.
The pattern we keep seeing is that companies roll out AI note-takers and workflow tools before they’ve set any guardrails, manager training, employee training, etc. Then HR gets dragged in after trust, documentation, or privacy has already gone sideways. There should be more concern about compliance risk and overall education regarding AI usage.
