What does the future look like for the payroll profession with the involvement of artificial intelligence (AI)? Join PayrollOrg and global leaders to explore AI's current and future landscape within payroll in the free virtual panel event “From Fear to Future: AI’s Role in the Payroll Profession” on December 4, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. ET.

Sponsored by Workday, this panel discussion, moderated by Nick Day, JGA Recruitment Group's CEO and The Payroll Podcast's host, examines where AI stands today and the anticipated impacts in the next 3-5 years with payroll industry experts.

Joining Day are panelists:

  • Tracee Bowles—Global Advisory Practice Leader, The Hackett Group
  • Michael Francis—Director of Global, SBA Communications
  • Bart van der Storm—Global Payroll Strategist, Payrollminds
  • Jen Cozier—Vice President of Payroll Product Management, Workday

From security concerns, vendor adaptation, and the fear of AI, panelists will discuss common misconceptions and highlight how AI can empower payroll professionals rather than become their replacement. By embracing and collaborating with AI, payroll professionals can become strategic partners for their organization's leadership team.

During this webinar, attendees will learn:

  • The forms of AI, including generative AI, bots, natural language processing (NLP), and machine learning (ML)
  • Payroll use cases of AI related to policies, procedures, automated inquiry responses, and customer service
  • Roadblocks to be aware of when implementing AI, such as security and personally identifiable information (PII) concerns, vendor-specific technology, and financial costs
  • Developments surrounding AI in the next 3-5 years that could enhance compliance and impact payroll professionals
  • Possible hindrances to progress in the form of emerging AI laws and regulations

Register today for this free virtual panel event: On demand through March 31, 2025
