Any concern that something like this could make it easier to discriminate against certain groups of people? Or how this might tip towards appearance-based bias or age bias when making decisions on who to interview?

Where did I tell them not to build it? > We're all actively discriminating against those who don't have the faculty or propensity to code or engineer as they would lower the productivity of our software teams. Discrimination here is healthy for the good of the whole. That's not what hiring discrimination is, companies aren't required to hire someone who is not capable of doing a job. That's why you'll see requirements like "ability to lift 50lbs". > Some are unjust and we can do things about them. Yeah, like laws against discriminating based on age, race, disability, etc..
