Overview:
The term “artificial intelligence” might be the phrase of 2025. It’s written and spoken about virtually everywhere by practically everyone, and it essentially markets itself as the newest, shiniest, and most efficient tool for every industry to consider and put into practice.
But the term “artificial intelligence” is quite broad. The definition of AI is broadened even further when considering that different technologies can be combined to create new AI systems. Despite the ever-expanding definition of AI, it is important to take inventory of the different types of AI to determine which, if any, is best suited for a workplace investigation.
How AI Can Help in Workplace Investigations
· Data management, analysis, and pattern recognition. Deploying AI in a workplace investigation can streamline an often long and intensive process by organizing, synthesizing, and digesting large amounts of data.
· Because AI tools are analyzing documents while sorting, an investigator can employ searches to identify information such as patterns, involved parties, and problematic documents, allowing for the creation of visual timelines of the event.
Compliance Considerations and Concerns with AI
· State laws, federal laws, and discrimination liability.
· Some states have started to enact legislation that regulates the use of AI in the workplace
