The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed organizational processes and increased the demand for talent with specialized knowledge and skills to integrate AI into business activities. This study aims to examine the role of artificial intelligence talent in building organizational competitive advantage. The research employs a systematic literature review (SLR) by identifying, evaluating, and synthesizing relevant national and international studies on AI talent, AI skills, human capital, innovation, organizational performance, and competitive advantage. The findings indicate that AI talent contributes to competitive advantage through innovation, productivity improvement, data-driven decision-making, knowledge utilization, and organizational AI capabilities. Furthermore, AI talent requires not only technical expertise but also analytical, collaborative, and business-oriented competencies. Theoretically, this study positions AI talent as a strategic human capital resource within the Resource-Based View and Dynamic Capabilities perspectives. Practically, the findings emphasize the importance of strategic recruitment, continuous upskilling and reskilling, and knowledge sharing to optimize AI talent. Overall, AI talent plays an important role in transforming technological capabilities into sustainable competitive advantage.
