What AI Is Changing in the People Stack

HR tech was designed to store information. Today, that’s no longer enough. As AI becomes embedded into the People stack, teams are moving from passive record-keeping to intelligent, automated execution.

But what actually changes when AI sits inside your core systems? How does it reshape workflows, decisions, and the day-to-day reality of People teams? This session cuts through the hype to explore the practical impact of AI in modern People operations.

Join Milly Parker, Director People Experience at Oyster, alongside Giovanni Luperti, CEO at Humaans, for a practical conversation designed for People, Talent, and Operations leaders navigating growth in an AI-enabled world.

In this session, we’ll cover:

• How the People stack has evolved, and why being a system of record is no longer sufficient
• What fundamentally changes when AI is embedded into core workflows, from reactive processes to proactive execution
  
• Where AI is already reducing manual work at scale across performance cycles, approvals, lifecycle management, and knowledge access
  
• What this means for global, distributed teams looking to scale with consistency and control
  
• Early lessons from adoption, including where AI creates real value and what teams need to get right around governance and change management
  

Whether you’re modernising your People infrastructure or planning your next phase of growth, this session will help you understand how to move from static systems to systems of action.
