This study aims to analyze the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in driving transformation within human resource management (HRM) processes through a descriptive–analytical approach based on a review of recent peer-reviewed literature published between 2019 and 2025. The study explores the key domains affected by this transformation, including recruitment and selection, training and skill development, performance evaluation and motivation, as well as compensation management and talent retention.
The research adopts a descriptive–analytical methodology by examining the content of prior studies and identifying both theoretical and practical trends that highlight the impact of AI on enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of human resources.
Findings indicate that AI has become a pivotal factor in redefining HRM functions, contributing to improved decision accuracy and organizational fairness. However, it also faces challenges related to ethics, algorithmic transparency, and data governance. Moreover, the results show that the Saudi context demonstrates advanced readiness for adopting AI-driven HR solutions in line with Saudi Vision 2030, while emphasizing the need to further develop digital competencies and ethical regulatory policies.
The study recommends establishing digital governance frameworks, equipping HR professionals with AI-related skills, and developing applied Arab studies to better understand the unique characteristics of intelligent transformation in human resource management.
