Methodology: the research addresses the methodology is descriptive and documentary since the recruitment and selection of personnel is studied. Results: There was greater accuracy of such decisions due to AI driven by predictive algorithms and big data analytics. Which eliminated human bias and further balanced the process. In turn, ethical issues arose with the introduction of AI into the HR system, such as privacy, innate bias, and opacity of AI-based decision-making systems. Conclusions: It is concluded that despite these specific problems, everything is extremely beneficial, since AI allows a company to hire a person faster, more precision and diverse. The strategic future of AI in recruitment depends on similar decisions by companies regarding ethics. General area of study: Administration. Specific area of study: Human Talent Management.
