Is working with artificial intelligence hampering your best-performing employees?

Conscientious employees—detail oriented, orderly, and hard-working—are considered better performers in the workplace. However, this belief may be based on 20th century evidence that ignores recent technological advances, especially artificial intelligence. Pok Man Tang, Joel Koopman, and Shawn McClean write that AI characteristics such as precision, detail orientation, and orderliness that overlap with the conscientious employee’s traits, and research shows that people prefer working with colleagues that possess complementary, not redundant, qualities as compared to their own.
