I mean, maaaaaaybe AI can help with applicant screening, but I’d need to see some •damn• good evidence that the net effect is positive. Identifying and countering training set bias, evaluating results, teasing out confounders and false successes — these are •hard• problems, problems that research work long months and years to overcome.
Do I believe for a hot minute that companies selling these hiring AIs are properly doing that work? No. No, I do not.
