For professionals in inventory management, logistics and procurement, AI tools are no longer experimental; they are quietly becoming part of how decisions are made and how performance is measured.<\/p>\n<p>Many supply chain professionals say AI genuinely makes their work easier, particularly around forecasting demand, optimising routes and catching problems early (Attah et al., 2024). Where it falls short is in the more relational parts of the job, things like managing supplier relationships, which remain stubbornly human. Even as AI adoption grows, the tasks that depend on trust and negotiation are the ones AI still struggles to replace.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, becoming familiar with AI usage does not always translate into a deeper understanding of how it boosts productivity. Many professionals feel fine using AI dashboards and tools day to day but considerably less confident explaining the technical principles behind them (Akter &#038; Kudapa, 2024), like how a machine learning model actually reaches its conclusions. Interestingly, this gap does not close simply through more frequent AI use. Individuals at advanced stages of AI adoption report no greater technical understanding than those who are just beginning to use AI, suggesting that genuine AI literacy requires deliberate training rather than mere exposure.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the most striking insight is that workplace inclusion matters more for performance than the AI tools themselves. Employees who perceive strong organisational support, including transparent communication about AI, opportunities for diverse stakeholder participation in AI implementation and clear guidance on future AI initiatives, tend to exhibit higher levels of performance than those who lack such support (Rane et al., 2024).
