your concern is very true, but why are the team members using AI, is it for thier personal or professional use, Personal we cant do anything, and for professional if they are using AI for thier day to day tasks, then I think you should be faster than the team and provide them AI tools which are designed to help reach the organization goals, and keep improvising the same

To understand people and situations in better way and our approach and response to the things happening around us changes to a new dimension, knowledge is only potential power, actual power is in implementation, the speed of implementation will decide speed of your growth, thank you.

I would not suggest for immediate action on termination, instead put him under PIP for 1 month before he goes on leave, give him clear targets and goals and time line for achievements, review periodically showing him his progress and his performance, if he misses the goals take his plan of action in writing or on email, this documentation will help for future actions, Even if you are the owner or boss, always involve HR of your company in the performance reviews and consider HR feedback so that it should look like a fair review system and employee should not feel targeted,

Discuss with your HR manager first about the delay from your boss, try to check the reasons of delay, you must have received a email from HR on your annual review, fwd the email to your HR with CC to your boss with your self assessment.

If still its not working then sit with your boss and discuss the point with your expectation and get the clarity, All the best.

Feedback gets delayed when interviewer does not get confidence over the profile, it may or may not suit the requirement, 90% of these cases could be a reject, If selected then feedback is given immediately to proceed for hiring the candidate.
