Explore the use of AI in the employment context and understand the potential risks and discriminatory impact associated with it.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the employment context is not new, but it is evolving and growing. Utilizing AI in employee training and development can enhance learning experiences and personalize training programs, analyze employee performance data, and provide targeted recommendations for skill development and career advancement. But as employers look to AI to create efficiencies, they must also be mindful of the need for transparency, human oversight, and continuous testing and auditing of AI tools.

In this episode of Risk Insights: Senior Living & LTC, host Tara Clayton and La'Vonda McLean, Employment Practices Liability and Wage & Hour Product Leader at Marsh, explore the use of AI in the employment context and the potential risks and discriminatory impact associated with it.
