AI in the workplace is stumbling. Fortune's Workplace Innovation Summit will explore why | Fortune
Record AI investment has not translated into successful deployment, with 78% of organizations reporting AI projects that fail or remain stuck in pilots. Worker attitudes toward AI are mixed: more than a third accept AI-generated responses as-is or after only a quick check, while more than half trust colleagues more than AI. No employer or employee has a fully defined AI strategy. The Workplace Innovation Summit will focus on deploying AI agents to reallocate responsibilities and improve team productivity, and on labor-market data covering impacts on jobs, skills, and hiring. The event will also address performance review effectiveness, salary transparency, sustained innovation leadership, workplace equality policy changes, and Atlanta’s use of the FIFA World Cup to drive economic growth and partnerships.
"Despite record AI investment, 78% of organizations have seen AI projects fail or remain stuck in pilots, according to a report by workforce planning platform Orgvue. Workers are also sending mixed signals about AI. More than a third say they accept AI-generated responses as-is or after only a quick check, while more than half say they trust colleagues more than AI, according to new SurveyMonkey data."
"It's clear that no employer (or employee) has an AI strategy fully figured out. That's why we'll be digging into this very topic, among others, at the Workplace Innovation Summit this week. Anthropic chief people officer Hannah Pritchett will discuss how companies can deploy AI agents to reallocate responsibilities and build more productive teams."
"Indeed Chief Economist Svenja Gudell will unpack what labor-market data reveals about AI's effect on jobs, skills, and hiring-and how employers and workers are responding through automation, reskilling, and redesigned roles. The Summit will also look beyond AI, with a debate on whether the tried-and-true performance review is broken, as well as conversations on how to navigate the new era of salary transparency, and the leadership practices that create cultures of sustained innovation."
"I'll sit down with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Chair Andrea Lucas for an inside look at how the administration is redefining workplace equality and what employers should expect as legal, political, and cultural pressures collide. We'll close with Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, who will share how the city is leveraging the FIFA World Cup to drive economic growth-and what business leaders can learn about competing for talent, investing in infrastructure, and building stronger public-private partnerships."
