Artificial Intelligence has the potential to promote employee engagement and knowledge sharing. Through personalized learning and development opportunities, it fosters employee engagement, whereas through real-time communication and collaboration technologies it facilitates knowledge sharing within the organization. This review article aims at discovering how Artificial Intelligence facilitates sharing of knowledge and engaging employees in the organization by undertaking a secondary method of data collection.
