This study systematically examines how research on AI-enabled human resource management (AI-enabled HRM) has evolved in terms of its thematic structure within organizational contexts. To this end, we applied BERTopic-based topic modeling to 797 articles on AI-enabled HRM retrieved from the Web of Science database. The analysis identified 20 topics, among which five dominant themes— adoption and effects, efficiency and strategy, managers and professionals, ethics and collaboration, and recruitment—each accounted for more than 5% of the total corpus and collectively defined the core structure of the AI-enabled HRM literature. A synthesis of the topic distributions and their temporal patterns indicates that AI-enabled HRM research has progressed from an initial focus on technological adoption and efficiency toward greater attention to organizational use, managerial interpretation, domain-specific applications, and governance-related concerns. In particular, the results suggest that the effects of AI-enabled HRM do not arise automatically from technological capabilities alone. Rather, they are contingent upon organizational preparedness, the interpretive and decision-making roles of managers and professionals, the characteristics of application domains, and management practices that support accountability and trust. This study provides a data-driven thematic map of AI-enabled HRM research that integrates previously fragmented research streams into a coherent field-level overview. The synthesis suggests that academic discussions of AI-enabled HRM are shaped not only by technological potential but also by organizational and governance conditions. Future research should move beyond general claims of effectiveness by identifying conditions and evaluating which governance arrangements support trustworthy AI-enabled HRM across application domains and stakeholder groups, including employees.
