Shaista Anayat · Advances in computational intelligence and robotics book series · 2025
This research aims to advance the conceptual underpinnings of artificial intelligence in HRM (AI-HRM) in the era of digitization. Bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review using PRISMA on 172 research articles revealed the top themes that are being explored by the researchers, most contributive authors, organisations, countries, and organisations that are working towards AI-HRM. Through manual review of top research articles, the authors revealed the gaps and the research focus in the field of AI-HRM since year 2000 till 2022. Five major themes studied in AI-HRM were revealed through science mapping; digital transformation in HRM through artificial intelligence, big data, and human resource management, AI for decision making and resource allocation, AI for performance appraisal in HRM, and automation in HRM. Recommended future research avenues using TCM approach would be helpful to the professionals and researchers in the field to explore the AI in context of HRM and benefit from this novel technology of Industry 4.0.
