Abstract
This paper discusses the impact of artificial intelligence on employee performance, focusing on the analysis of the positive and negative effects of AI on employee performance in the work scene and some challenges through my hybrid analysis method that combines quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis. Through the review of secondary data and the collection of some primary data, an objective research methodology has been obtained. The research reveals the wide application of AI in employees and its limited impact on management decision-making. Although AI can improve employees' work efficiency, it still has limitations when dealing with some complex tasks. Similarly, this paper also discusses some policies and measures that may enable AI to better assist employees, aiming to promote the integration of AI and employee performance, emphasizing the importance of innovation management and employee adaptation to technological change. The research conclusion points out that the rational application of AI can not only improve the individual performance of employees, but also release the maximum potential of AI and employees through innovation motivation and team cooperation. However, future research should continue to focus on the evolution of AI in management and explore more balanced and humanized AI integration strategies to improve employee performance and organizational effectiveness, and I will continue to explore this in the future.
