A short transcript excerpt from a YouTube conversation (featuring Will Humphreys) arguing that recruiting should remain human-centered. The speakers emphasize that recruiting is about observing people’s energy, communication, and passion, and express skepticism that AI can fully replace human connection—even if AI or automation advances in the future. The exchange contrasts human virtual assistants (VAs) with AI and briefly speculates about a distant future where AI could develop feelings.

Automation. Well, I don't think I'd ever want to fully give up that human connection. For me, recruiting just isn't about matching skills. I'm a big proponent of that. I. It's about seeing people, their energy, their communication, their passion. I still want to be the one that talk to them, guide them, and to root for them. That part, that's the part that AI just can't replace. And honestly, I wouldn't want it to. But maybe someday in the future where ada it could develop feelings of its own and maybe one day.
I think that's an interesting perspective because right now, again, what's interesting, when people look at AI versus VAs, there's this conception for many beginners that VAS is a distancing from the relationship because people aren't physically in a room. Not that that doesn't create challenges, but there's definitely still a human. As long as you get the right human, it's going to be more than fine. The AI ever gets that point where it can match that. I have a feeling that the world will be at such an advanced place that most people don't have to work. We're probably going to have more than enough food and water and shelter and opportunity to live a different life. But until then, I agree that connection just can't go away.
