    Robots & Raises: How AI Is Reshaping HR and Total Rewards

    Is AI your new HR team member, or your company's biggest liability? In this episode of The Total Package, Ashunta Thornton breaks down how artificial intelligence is transforming HR, especially Total Rewards. From auto-generating salary bands to flagging pay inequities (or… reinforcing them 👀), we unpack how AI is leveling up compensation strategy, what questions HR should be asking before plugging in, and why “automated” doesn’t always mean “equitable.” Whether you’re a business leader, HR pro, or just trying to keep up with the bots, this episode will help you navigate the intersection of tech, pay, and people, with humor, insight, and a healthy side of HR skepticism.
