Resume Builder reports that 60% of managers use AI for personnel decisions, including raises and promotions, and more than one in five let it make final calls without human input. The article separately says 65% of managers use AI tools overall; only a third of those users are.
Resume Builder chief career adviser Stacie Haller said AI lacks context, empathy and judgment, and that its results can reflect flawed, biased or manipulated data. The article also cites Stanford researchers’ finding that AI hiring tools showed racial bias against Black and Asian applicants.
For raise negotiations, the article advises checking salary ranges against multiple sources and documenting specific, measurable contributions. It cautions that a manager may have access to pay data unavailable publicly, and that generic chatbots can give different salary estimates from specialized benchmarking tools.
