- retrac 4y agoIf I knew nothing other than whether someone was Jewish or not, and if I felt free to discriminate, I would, of course, hire the Jewish person. On average they do better than typical Americans across the board. In reality, I don't feel free to discriminate. So it's a problem if I know that a candidate is Jewish, because I'm clearly biased and working off a stereotype there. So is the AI. Maybe that helps clarify the domain my thought experiment was operating in.
