Low-cost jobs will be taken over by AI, most worried about outsourced ones: Workday CEO
Workday Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Aneel Bhusri told reporters at the Workday Rising Summit that AI will not lead to jobs moving out of the US or first-world countries, but may do the opposite.
Workday CEO Aneel Bhusri addressed a human resources summit, voicing his concerns over artificial intelligence (AI) potentially replacing low-cost and outsourced jobs. He clarified that AI will not relocate jobs from the US or first-world countries, but may instead enhance productivity and efficiency. Bhusri emphasized that AI is meant to augment human capabilities rather than replace them.
Workday's newly unveiled AI platform, Sana, aims to automate human resources and finance functions, with agents capable of performing tasks such as payroll policy implementation, shift management, and logistics handling. The platform also builds connections with AI tools that organizations already use, like Claude, Google Cloud's Gemini Enterprise, Microsoft Copilot, and Slack.
Bhusri highlighted the importance of embracing AI's role in transforming jobs and redefining roles and responsibilities, promoting a collaborative future where humans and AI work side by side.
