Your journey through this book will reveal the extraordinary opportunities awaiting HR professionals ready to harness the power of AI, particularly the potential of ChatGPT. The tale begins back in 1987, when I’d saved up to buy my first computer. My young fingers danced across a ZX Spectrum keyboard and my imagination lit up at the possibilities of computer programming. It was an era when Lotus 1-2-3 was the cutting-edge spreadsheet tool for businesses, offering a taste of what would eventually explode into today's omnipresence of sophisticated data tools. I stepped further into the digital realm at Rhodes University, where the untapped potential of the internet and the tantalising prospect of remote work (even though it was becoming possible then, it took a global pandemic in 2020 to later make this concept a palpable reality) came into my purview. In 1999, the ringing of my first mobile phone marked my enlistment into the world of unbroken connectivity. While working at the International Data Corporation, I leveraged technology to morph a week-long task into a few short hours by writing Excel macros, illustrating the power of software to optimise operations. This experience thrust me into the unfolding narrative of mobile devices. Here, I encountered the XDA, a forebear of today's smartphones, and the iPod, a device that would redefine our interaction with music. In 2007, I held my first iPhone. The sleek device in my palm hinted at a paradigm shift in personal technology. A decade later, the world of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) opened up before me, during a conversation at a KPMG dinner. This encounter led to co-founding a company dedicated to transforming the way businesses operate through process automation. The year 2022 marked my initiation into the realm of AI writing assistants. Discovering these potent tools was akin to a close encounter with a new species of intelligence, the likes of which humankind had never seen. This was my introduction to ChatGPT, a form of generative AI that I immediately recognised as a game- changer, a catalyst on par with the advent of computers, spreadsheets, the internet, and mobile technology. HR professionals now stand on the brink of an exhilarating new era where AI and human resources collide. Developing the ability to navigate this transformation will be a key differentiator in the professional landscape. Herein lies the promise and the warning: AI won't replace HR professionals. However, HR professionals who understand and can leverage AI may well replace those who can't. This book offers an exploration of the benefits, use cases, and potential risks of integrating ChatGPT into HR practices. It's about more than just understanding this powerful tool; it's about equipping you with practical strategies for leveraging AI in your HR processes, helping you stay ahead in a world being rapidly reshaped by technology. Drawing upon my vast experience in management consulting, technology and its business implications, I will guide you on this exciting journey. "The ChatGPT HR Advantage" is your roadmap to integrating AI into HR, from recruitment to employee engagement and performance management, streamlining processes, cutting costs, and boosting decision-making. Whether you hold the position of an HR leader, work in the HR team, or have HR responsibilities within a smaller organisation, this book will assist you in improving your job performance, increasing efficiency, and saving time for you and your team in accomplishing your HR objectives. Thank you for joining me on this voyage. Now, let's dive into the future of HR and unveil the promise of AI. Chapter One: A Brief History of ChatGPT In this chapter, you will learn: • The timeline of AI from its inception to the present day, including the emergence of deep learning and the recent advancements in AI models like ChatGPT. • OpenAI's contribution to the field of AI and its development of ChatGPT, a powerful AI model trained on vast amounts of internet data. • The capabilities of ChatGPT, including its extensive knowledge base and its ability to understand and sustain intelligent dialogues. • The practical applications of ChatGPT in the HR function, such as resume screening, candidate engagement, onboarding, training and development, and performance management. • The benefits of using ChatGPT in HR, including improved efficiency, time savings, and enhanced service to employees, allowing HR professionals to focus on more strategic activities. The Timeline of AI to Now Artificial Intelligence (AI) has fascinated us for centuries, but its serious pursuit began in the mid-20th century. Our journey begins in 1956 at Dartmouth College, where a meeting of brilliant minds contemplated the concept of 'intelligent machines.' This marked the initiation of formal AI research. The ensuing decades saw novel algorithms and innovative techniques taking form, driving the boundaries of AI further. The 1980s, however, proved pivotal with the emergence of 'deep learning,' a technique crafted by John Hopfield and David Rumelhart. It employed artificial neural networks to learn from data and became the foundation of myriad AI applications, ranging from image recognition to speech recognition. The rekindled interest in AI in recent years has been driven by models like OpenAI's ChatGPT, trained on vast datasets. Capable of generating text, translating languages, and providing informative responses, it exemplifies the ever-evolving capabilities of AI. AI, permeating our lives, revolutionises the medical field, drives the birth of autonomous vehicles, and even composes music. As we stand on the brink of this AI revolution, it's clear that it's poised to reshape our future, including business, in ways unimaginable. OpenAI's Contribution: Started in 2015, OpenAI had a heavy-hitting line-up within its founding group including Elon Musk, Sam Altman (former leader of Y Combinator and Reddit), Ilya Sutskever (prominent figure in the world of AI and machine learning), and others. The goal of OpenAI was to "ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity". OpenAI has created many impressive AI projects such as DALL-E and Whisper. However, in this book, we will focus on one of their most remarkable achievements, the Generative Pre-trained Transformer or GPT. GPT is an AI model that OpenAI started developing in 2016. Over the next five years, OpenAI refined GPT by training it on a vast amount of internet data. ChatGPT: In 2022, OpenAI made a landmark advancement in AI, unveiling ChatGPT, an intuitive chatbot that fostered a deeper understanding of natural language processing. This leap forward caught the attention of tech giant Microsoft, leading to an $11 billion investment, a significant portion of which boosted ChatGPT's computational prowess to learn and respond to myriad queries. ChatGPT was trained on a vast array of internet data, including billions of sentences from sources as varied as webpages, academic literature and social media. This enabled it to amass an extensive databank of human knowledge as found online. The result is ChatGPT, a sophisticated artificial
