AI is transforming how organizations hire, but trust hasn’t kept pace with technology.

In this session, workforce futurist and skills strategist Janice Robinson Burns explores how people and AI can work together to build a hiring process that is faster, fairer, and more human. You’ll see where AI creates real value, where it introduces risk, and what it takes to make AI a trusted partner in talent decisions.
