5 ways artificial intelligence will change the way we work in 2022

Published Updated 2 Min Read

The adoption of artificial intelligence in the workplace was greatly accelerated by the pandemic, and as we inch back toward the office setting, these tools are only expected to grow in value.

Fifty-six percent of companies improved their relationship with AI during 2021, up 45% from 2020, according to a recent survey conducted by consulting firm, McKinsey. Within the world of HR, recruiting and hiring have seen a particular uptick when it comes to embracing AI tools.

“If you thought brainstorming and white-boarding can only happen in a room, think again,” Saurabh says. “You got an idea? Share it with your teammates via software tools. By the time you wake up the next morning, it has become a full-fledged document ready for execution.”

“The biggest impact of AI will be seen in tedious, time-consuming, repetitive stuff that nobody in the team wants to do — be it scheduling calendar invites across time zones, processing invoices, doing minutes of a meeting, or running through resumes of potential hires,” Saurabh says. “By the end of 2022, a lot of this workload will be taken over by AI, enabling the new workforce to handle tasks that are less labor-intensive and more creative, requiring a culture of life-long learning and collaboration across different parts of the world, than ever before.”
