Jensen's vision of AI-powered recruitment and VR training sounds impressive on paper, much like how automated customer service promised to revolutionize support.

While streamlining the hiring process through AI and applicant tracking systems might save time for HR departments – much like how self-checkout lanes save money for supermarkets – we're creating an increasingly impersonal candidate experience.

It's like trying to find a life partner through a dating app that only looks at age and height – technically efficient but missing the intangible qualities that often matter most. Yes, technology can enhance HR operations, just as digital tools have revolutionized many industries. But when 70% of candidates apply through mobile "Quick Apply" buttons, we've turned job hunting into the equivalent of speed dating – quick, superficial, and often unsatisfying for both parties. The human touch in Human Resources isn't just a nice-to-have feature; it's the cornerstone of building strong teams and maintaining healthy workplace cultures. While Jensen acknowledges the need for "human oversight," this feels like an afterthought in her tech-centric vision, akin to adding a smiley face emoji to an automated rejection email – it doesn't make the experience more personal.
