NEW: A Stanford study found that AI hiring tools discriminated against Black and Asian job applicants. Researchers analyzed data from over 4 million job applications and found that AI screening systems recommended Black and Asian candidates at significantly lower rates than white applicants. Key details: → The AI met the legal threshold for “adverse impact” in hiring → 26% of Black applicants and 15% of Asian applicants were affected by the bias → Researchers estimated that removing the bias would have allowed roughly 40,000 more Black and Asian applications to advance to the next stage → The study looked at hiring tools used by 156 employers across multiple industries The findings add to growing concerns about bias in AI-powered recruitment systems. #AI #Hiring #Discrimination #Stanford #JobListing
