Using AI at work is old news. Giving AI “employees” similar treatment to their human counterparts is the next frontier, according to human resource software company Lattice.
The tech unicorn—founded by Sam Altman’s brother Jack Altman and valued at $3 billion in 2022—announced it “made history” this week by giving so-called “digital workers” employee records and integrating them into organization charts, allowing its human coworkers to see the roles of AI in their workplace. The change is part of Lattice’s greater effort to integrate AI into the workplace in a “responsible” way, which ostensibly means treating the technology like a human hiree: training it, onboarding it, andeven assigning it a manager.
