New IBM CHRO Study: AI Puts Critical Thinking at the Center of Workforce Priorities

The study found 71% of CHROs say workers need to supervise and override AI outputs, while 60% of employees worry about skills erosion.

  • A significant disconnect exists regarding essential skills: while 71% of CHROs prioritize AI supervision and validation, only 29% of employees rank judgment as important in an AI-enabled workplace.
  • AI adoption creates "invisible" work for employees, according to 80% of CHROs; furthermore, 43% of employees report being blamed when AI fails, while 41% of CHROs believe staff feel unsafe challenging AI recommendations.
  • Despite being expected to lead AI transformation, 72% of organizations make limited or no use of AI within Human Resources functions, and nearly half exclude CHROs from defining AI strategy.
  • Organizations that clearly define workflows as human-led, AI-assisted, or AI-executed report 18% risk reduction and 20% quality improvement, helping CHROs boost confidence in AI-enabled decisions.
