Canva acquisitions, Workday Agents and the AI skills pay gap.

In this episode of Spilling the Tea on HR Tech, Stacey Harris and Cliff Stevenson cover a packed week of HR tech news ranging from SD Workx’s expanded European payroll reach to Canva’s acquisition of two AI companies that are quietly becoming relevant to HR practitioners. They dig into Workday’s Agent System of Record, now generally available; the DOL's new AI literacy framework; and Matt Shumer’s controversial essay on AI’s future that garnered more than 80 million views on X. Key points covered include: ↪️ Canva is aggressively expanding its design ecosystem with the acquisitions of MangoAI, which sells AI video ad optimization tools, and Cavalry, a U.K. based 2D animation design company. These acquisitions aim to transform Canva from a simple template tool into a comprehensive creative ecosystem for both casual and professional users. ↪️ PayScale's 2026 Best Practices Compensation Report finds 61% of organizations now list AI skills as part of existing roles, but only 45% are adjusting compensation to reflect those skills. ↪️ Two legal cases involving AI use - one tied to a criminal investigation, another around attorney-client privilege - offer practical reminders that legally one must have full knowledge of the work to be done before relying on AI output. Nor is AI output protected under attorney-client privilege. ↪️ The U.S. Department of Labor released an AI literacy framework for guiding the development of training programs to equip American workers with foundational, non-technical AI skills.
