Comment on A Stanford Study Exposes Massive Racial Bias in AI Hiring Tools Used by 90 Percent of Businesses

FiniteBanjo@feddit.online ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

So their source that 73% of global businesses use AI, at some point in the hiring process, is a site called CPA Practice Advisor who source their claim from MyPerfectResume™ which honestly I’ve sounds kind of bogus to me.

Can that many people really be this stupid?

If it’s the cheapest modus operandi the bean counters can find to accomplish the task, you bet they can.

    They’re outsourcing the logic to the AI provider, so they can pass the buck and proclaim innocence - in some cases it’s even likely true.

    In California, one such lawsuit was allowed to continhe by a judge. Proclaming innocence doesn’t work when we have all known about AI racial bias and hallucinations for many years, we can reasonably show that they in all likelihood did know the same way a musician can prove the thief heard their song in a copyright case.

    Many of them paid for those degrees, like Trump. He didn’t earn a degree, he bought one.
