AI now decides some promotions at work

AI tools are increasingly being used to determine promotions, with some managers allowing AI to make final decisions. This shift requires employees to understand how AI influences career advancement. A recent survey revealed that 77% of managers using AI rely on it for promotion decisions, and over 20% let AI make the final call. AI analyzes performance metrics, communication, and skills to make decisions more quickly and potentially reduce bias. Companies are adopting AI for efficiency and objectivity, but experts caution against potential biases and lack of transparency. Employees can improve their chances by documenting achievements and leveraging AI tools themselves.
