The speaker highlights that virtually every major corporation—from Walmart to Boeing—is re-evaluating their hiring, operational, and process automation strategies in light of generative AI. Particularly, AI is expected to revolutionize HR functions and middle management workflows, which often involve extensive paperwork, emails, and routine tasks.

This significantly reduces the necessity for large back-office teams, shifting the focus of HR professionals toward strategic and human-centered functions.
