Artificial Intelligence and HR Practices in Higher Educational Institutions in India: A Thorough Analysis

Artificial Intelligence is proposed by john McCarthy and Marvin Minsky in 1956.They proposed that computers might be used to simulate human intellect by defining Artificial Intelligence (AI) as the ability of machines to understand, reason and learn similarly to humans. The scientific and engineering process of developing intelligent machines, especially computer programs, is known as artificial Intelligence (AI). In general, HR managers widely have a perception that AI will replace Human Resource managers shortly but in reality Artificial Intelligence does simplifies their job by automating repeated tasks and providing valuable insights without any cognitive biases. This paper tries to addresses the possibilities of how Artificial intelligence is transforming and supporting the Human Resource functions like Recruitment, Training, Talent management and Retention through real time examples, gives insights on intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Human Resource management cases and finally it addresses the future impact on the HR workforce. The rapid growth of AI Technology is gradually bringing about a revolutionary change in the Indian Higher Education Environment. The transformation in Higher Education Institutions formalized with the announcement of National Education Policy (NEP 2020). This paper explores the role of AI in reshaping Higher Education Institutions in India.
