  • The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) seeks to modernize federal human capital management using artificial intelligence (AI).
  • Director Scott Kupor showcased the USA Class tool to streamline the complex federal hiring process by automating the creation of job descriptions.
  • USA Class leverages AI to digest existing job descriptions and generate new ones based on OPM’s classification standards, which hiring managers review and refine.
  • OPM aims to automate the manual, paper-based retirement benefit application process, particularly in call centers to handle administrative tasks like address changes.
  • The goal of these AI applications is to complement, not replace, human workers by reducing their workload on repetitive or straightforward tasks.
  • Kupor emphasized that AI is used to support human expertise and allow them to focus on more complex tasks.
