Intelligence Briefing
January 13, 2026
Writing a book about using AI without creating low-quality results (aka “slop”) wouldn’t be complete without using AI strategically at key points in the process myself. I believe that writing sharpens your thinking, which is why I’ve written the manuscript myself. But I also knew that I could use some expert support beyond my own skills to edit and refine the manuscript.

The Impact of CV Recommender Systems on Procedural Justice in Recruiting: An Experiment in Candidate Selection
European Conference on Information Systems
May 01, 2021
Due to the increasing amount of digitally available applicant information recruiters have difficulties to manage applications through manual recruiting practices. Using CV recommender systems in the selection phase supports recruiters in identifying the most suitable candidates by computing the similarity between a candidate’s profile and job requirements. While recent research has mainly focused on technical improvements, we seek to gain more insights about human-algorithm interactions in recruiting. Our study aims to examine what impact the use of a CV recommender system has on procedural justice in the selection process. Through an experimental set-up with 74 recruiters from 22 multinational companies, our study shows that the incorporation of a CV recommender system helps recruiters to ensure the rule of consistency and bias suppression in the selection phase. Thus, our quantitative results indicate that CV recommender systems can have an impact on procedural justice in candidate selection.

Top AI Influencer of 2023
The Futurum Group
December 18, 2023
One of the best ways to stay informed about the “ground truth” of AI evolution is to listen to and read what the experts are saying and thinking. In my view, that means seeking out a collection of individuals that think about AI from different perspectives:

Technical: Thinkers who focus on AI technology itself; what it can do
Business: Thinkers who focus on how AI technology is best used in businesses
Responsible: Thinkers who focus on how AI technology should be used; guardrails for safe use

You are interested in understanding best practices of an enterprise that has successfully operationalized AI. Welsch has been a pioneer of AI influencers, writing and podcasting with AI guidance for a few years. Leaning both on SAP’s successful journey in operationalizing AI and a wide range of experts, Andreas delivers very practical AI advice and education.

Some highlights:
- Emerging tools like ChatGPT can help increase productivity (such as drafting or summarizing content), but BEWARE of hallucinations. (Wait, you didn't testify before Congress?!?)
- You still need a "human in the loop" and will want to prepare your organizations with data and AI literacy programs. 
- AI needs good data but we still have barriers (such as siloed data).
- Biased inputs can lead to biased outputs.
- Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

Generative AI in 2024

Date : October 16, 2023

We will see the first commercially available generative AI-based agents that can accomplish goals based on a user-defined goal. These agents will be able to determine the steps needed to accomplish their goal, write and execute code, and connect to available APIs. They will go further where experimental frameworks and research papers stop, and provide a first glimpse at the true potential of generative AI that understands a user's intent and is able to translate that into actionable steps.

AI is becoming more accessible and more pervasive. But there’s a gap!

The conversation around AI is still mainly a technical one - between technical experts and enthusiasts. And even after 6, 7 years of AI becoming more mature, we’re still seeing a gap in connecting this technology with business objectives. This gap largely exists because technologists tend to focus so much on technology rather than where and how it can be applied to deliver business value. The business community, however, experiences AI through Hollywood with either its futuristic or dystopian stories. Or they perceive it as the hype that they read about in the press or that they hear about from their peers. However, successful innovation and transformation go beyond pure technology aspects. And technology leaders and their teams ed to enable their business peers to understand the potential of artificial intelligence and automation in order to successfully harness the technology's benefits.
