How AI is affecting this role

  • Using Perplexity AI to scan 50+ global 'Future of Work' reports to summarize specific trends relevant to the Indian manufacturing sector in under 5 minutes.
  • Leveraging Claude 3.5 Sonnet to generate five distinct scenarios for how a 'Customer Success' team structure evolves over the next 3 years as AI agents take over Tier 1 support.
  • Deploying a custom GPT via Slack that ingests the entire company handbook to answer specific queries about 'maternity leave policy for Bangalore employees' instantly, 24/7.

Ways to survive

  • Shift from producing standard reports (which AI will auto-generate) to delivering 'insight audits' that explain the 'why' behind the data.
  • Specialize in the ethical and legal implications of AI in the workplace to become the go-to governance expert.
  • Focus on 'human-centric' design—translating cold AI efficiency metrics into warm employee value propositions.

Ways to get ahead with AI

  • Build an internal 'Talent Marketplace' using AI matching algorithms to connect employees with gig-like internal projects.
