Across organizations, AI slipped into HR through quiet product updates, reshaping who gets hired, promoted, or managed out long before most leaders realized what had changed. This article looks at how unvalidated AI features embedded in common HR tools create governance and compliance risks, why CHROs are being held accountable for systems they didnโ€™t choose, and what real AI oversight must look like in 2026 for Canadian employers.
