How necessary do you think it is for IT to involve HR in AI discussions? How do you start these conversations while establishing clear responsibilities?

Policy regulation and strictly restrict exposing PII data would require involving HR/Compliance team to ensure AI Agents/discussions are not exceeding the limitations, which could put the org data at risk.

Critical. Absolutely critical for HR to co-lead if not lead with IT expertise supporting them. Putting aside the argument that 20th century functions like HR, IT, Finance are soon to be deprecated and that Fusion teams are the new organisational paradigm, we are talking about cognitive agents, human capital impact, new roles, reskilling, and everything like that. There is HR stamped all over AI and whoever starts to lead AI in your organisation very very quickly needs to work as one with the other.

Probably your intent to involve HR is more from managing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data. If that's the case, then involve your privacy management or Information Security team. Otherwise, i don't feel there is need to involve HR unless the users of AI solution is HR team.

Not necessary unless you are hiring AI resources. Definitely keep Legal in the loop
