I bet they also suffer from other biases that are harder to detect and maybe some biases we can't even imagine and thus control for.

- chfalck 2y agoKind of like humans in that regard
- petre 2y agoExcept being able to process 1e9 more applications, thus massively more biased and discriminatory.
- paulddraper 2y agoSo.....,just like humans?
- killingtime74 2y agoThat's the point though. It's illegal for humans to do things during hiring that are not illegal for AI to do as it stands now (all sorts of discrimination). We want to at least level the playing field.
- simonh 2y agoThere’s no exemption from prosecution for racial bias because it was done by an algorithm. If a company uses such an algorithm, AI or not, they will be open to prosecution for it.
- no_wizard 2y agoThe differential nugget is that LLMs and similar tech are auditable. You can audit the models, test for bias etc in a way that scales.
- mzmzmzm 2y agoHumans can be asked to explain their decissions and personally take accountability for them. Even if AI processes were less biased, using them introduces the opacity of relying on models that simply can't be fully intuited or explained. For life-altering decisions, merely performing better than a human is not the benchmark.
