‘AI rebounding’ could cost companies
A report from talent insights company SHL, released Oct. 29, found that some employers are replacing workers with AI and then trying to rehire them, a pattern it calls "AI rebounding." Of more than 2,000 U.S. and U.K. employed adults surveyed by Propeller Insights, 51% said they would demand a substantial raise to return, 42% would require a job security guarantee, and 4 in 10 would want full transparency about AI use in their role. Gartner predicts that by 2029, 30% of workers terminated or replaced by AI will be rehired, often at a higher cost.
