IBM Just Replaced HR with AI!! Who's Next?
So IBM just axed 8,000 people, and most of them are from the HR department. Why? Because AI can now read resumes, schedule interviews, give you automated rejection emails, and probably tell you “we’ll get back to you” with more emotion than some recruiters ever did.
Don’t get me wrong automation has its place. But when a company replaces humans who built its culture with lines of code, you’ve got to wonder… Is anyone safe?
First HR, then maybe finance, operations, even tech support? What’s left AI managing AI?
To IBM: maybe try evolving with your people, not without them.
Thoughts? Is this the future we signed up for?🙄

To be fair, HR was becoming robotic already. Maybe AI is just doing the same thing, but cheaper 🤷

[yedabhai](username) HR isn't just hiring and firing. There’s real value in employee engagement, conflict resolution, and DEI initiatives. If leadership cuts HR, it’s not the department failing it’s the company failing its people.

[troylover](username) They should replace the CEO with AI? 😂 Bro fr, AI would probably skip the 5pm "let’s circle back tomorrow" and give real answers.

AI sending rejection emails with “We were impressed with your profile…” hits harder now knowing it’s literally a bot ghosting me

Truth: Anyone who thinks AI can handle a harassment case clearly hasn’t dealt with one?

Honestly, this is terrifying. If HR, the literal gatekeepers of jobs, are gone… what’s stopping companies from replacing everyone else? It’s not about “efficiency” anymore, it’s about control.
