The HRTech Wire · auto-curated
HR technology, every morning — wired to the companies and people behind it.
AI investment and consolidation are reshaping the HR-tech landscape today, as Magentic raises $18M to build AI workforces for physical-world environments, Harver acquires Symphony Talent to form a global talent intelligence platform, and Crosschq rebrands as Brilliant AI to launch a new "hiring intelligence" category.

Regulatory and ethical questions are also mounting, with California business groups pushing back on the state's AI hiring proposal and debate intensifying over whether safety evaluators embedded by Anthropic and OpenAI can operate independently.
