We Tested AI Recruitment Hiring Tools. The Results Were Alarming | Episode 11

Описание: Paul & Sean are back with another great episode, looking at the world of AI.
The conversation delves into the alarming biases present in modern AI hiring tools, highlighting how these systems favour certain demographics over others.
They discuss the statistical disparities in name recognition based on race and gender, revealing a troubling trend in the hiring process that reflects broader societal inequalities.
Takeaways
modern AI hiring tools are showing strong radical and gender bias when ranking for job applicants.
models favoured white sounding names 85 % of the time, while black sounding names were only favoured 9 % of the time.
female names were preferred just 11 % of the time.
the AI never once ranked a black male named higher than a white male name.
it's astonishing, because we go back to the data that's been fed into these.
it's shocking, isn't it?
