AI in HR Research 2026

AI is moving into HR work fast. But the real question is no longer what AI can do. It is what is worth doing, what creates value and what should remain human. For our upcoming KennedyFitch AI in HR Report, we are gathering input from the people closest to this shift: HR leaders shaping the agenda, HR professionals using AI in their daily work and the people building AI-enabled HR solutions.

What the research explores

The report will look at where AI is already being used in HR, where adoption is still fragmented, why scaling is harder than piloting, and what capabilities HR teams will need next. We will combine survey findings with real implementation stories from organisations already applying AI in HR.

Take part in the research

Your input will help create a more grounded view of AI in HR: beyond hype, closer to real work, real choices and real value. The survey takes around 10 minutes and is fully anonymous. Everyone who completes it will receive the full report after publication.
